FIGHT THE CLIMATE CRISIS

WE ARE LIVING IN A CLIMATE CRISIS. IT’S TIME FOR BOLD ACTION.

Earth’s temperature is the hottest it’s ever been in over 2,000 years.
In Lytton, British Columbia, the temperature reached 49.6°C in 2021. One day later, 90 per cent of the village was lost to wildfires. This is one of the many effects of climate change.

If we continue to pollute our planet we’ll risk droughts that can create food shortages, our water quality will get worse and affect our health, and more species will become endangered or extinct.

Climate change is not a distant problem. It’s here and we have to do better.

ADVOCATE FOR CHANGE

Individual actions can help, but they’re not enough. In order to fight this crisis we need systems change. We need governments at all levels to implement policies that reduce greenhouse gases. Policies like carbon pricing that incentivize us to use cleaner fuels and be more efficient. Or, regulations and subsidies that support low-carbon technology like electric vehicles and heat pumps for buildings. All of these policies will help individuals and businesses shift from polluting activities to climate-friendly alternatives.

Organizations across the country are advocating for these policies. They are fighting for our planet and our future. In the past few years we’ve seen encouraging policy changes. But there’s still a long way to go. We need your help.

It’s encouraging that many people are starting to change their habits whether that’s choosing to recycle, have zero-waste meals, and carpool. But, in order for us to really end the climate crisis, our whole energy system needs to change. This can only be done through policy. By donating to the Fight Climate Change with Policy Fund, you’re making the decision to be part of the solution that will address climate change and create a better, cleaner world for all.
