As a follow up to my three posts about climate change, I have recently subscribed to a group, Seniors for Climate. The most recent information they have sent out pertains to their “Draw the Line” rally events across Canada.
Seniors for Climate recently hosted author John Vaillant who wrote Fire Weather about the Fort McMurray wildfire. I missed their presentation but heard John speak at a Literary Festival I attended in Knowlton, Quebec, and his message is powerful. It has inspired these Draw the Line events across the country.
There’s a rally in downtown Kitchener held by Waterloo Region Climate. Details follow:
Date: Sept 28
Time: 1 to 6 p.m.
Place: Gaukel Block (44 Gaukel Street), Downtown Kitchener
Event:
Join us at the first ever Waterloo Region Climate Fest! We have great creative workshops, booths, performances, and demonstrations lined up. We will also have a group ride to kick off the event! Let’s come together and celebrate how our community is taking action and how we can take it further.
Seniors for Climate says: If you can’t join an event in person, you can still take part.
Post a message of support on social media with #DrawTheLine, call or email your MP, write a quick letter to the editor, or simply talk to a few friends and invite them to join Seniors for Climate. Every action helps grow our voice and our impact.If you can’t join an event in person, you can still take part.
Hope to see you there!
