Climate Action Petition goes to Council May 28
May 28, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
The community is invited to come out Tuesday, May 28, 6:00 p.m. in Council Chambers to show support for a climate emergency declaration and action on climate change in Greater Sudbury.
On February 1, 2019, local youth with Fridays for Future called on Greater Sudbury Council to declare a climate emergency. Moved to act, two local grandmothers, Dr. Jane Cox and Mrs. Carole Lavallée, began a climate action petition. Over 2000 residents from every Ward and every area of Greater Sudbury have signed this petition, which will be presented to Council at the May 28 Council meeting. Councillors will vote on a motion to declare a climate emergency and make action on climate change a priority.
Attendees should plan to be there for 5:50pm. The vote should be done by 7:00pm.
