Dr. Dianne Saxe, Environmental Commissioner of Ontario, will speak on climate change at this community event in Thunder Bay on February 25th. 


The Commissioner will provide an overview of Ontario’s Environmental Bill of Rights, including past successes and challenges, and how upcoming changes will affect Ontarians’ environmental rights; recent climate science on the urgent threat climate change poses to our planet and province; Ontario’s current greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; and what needs to be done to reduce emissions and adapt for the future. It is too late to just talk about the climate, what counts now is action.

Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.
