To Whom It May Concern:

We know from the recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report that we are dangerously close to crossing the catastrophic 1.5C tipping point that would lead to runaway climate change. It is in the context of this dire warning that I call on the government to take urgent action to reduce our emissions and formulate a plan for adapting to a changing climate.

We cannot accept that increasingly severe wildfires, flooding and storms are our new normal.

We still have time to act.

We need profitable plans to do our part in the climate crisis, making GHG reductions a priority across all ministries in government. Time and money is wasted when problematic legislation such as Bill 4, as well government programs and spending plans, undermine our climate obligations.

Let’s get going.
