Cap Pollution: Making polluters do their fair share through policy and people
June 19 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
FreeThe oil and gas emissions cap is a key climate policy for Canada. Emissions released from the production of oil and gas are the largest source of pollution in Canada. Since 1990, oil and gas pollution has nearly doubled. Without the cap, oil and gas emissions will continue growing unchecked, further threatening our health, environment and economy.
Join us and our special guests for an in-person panel discussion on the impacts of fossil fuel pollution on our daily lives, and how you can take action in your community.
Mix and mingle with like-minded individuals on how we can push for more ambitious climate policies, and engage with our elected officials to keep Canada on track to meet its climate goals.
