Dear Friend,
As someone who cares deeply about the future of our planet, I wanted to reach out to you in the wake of the astonishing surge of heat across the globe. The first week of July set records as the hottest week in history, and the situation is expected to continue to deteriorate. In many ways we need to start talking about this as the coolest July for the next 100 years.
According to experts, the heatwaves we experienced last week are only the beginning. But we have solutions, we just need the political will to implement them with urgency. We need to act fast to drastically reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, protect our planet, and preserve the lives of those who will come after us.
That's why I am reaching out to you today to ask for your help. Your support can make a real difference in the fight against climate change. Whether you can give $5 or $500, every donation counts.
DonateBut we need more than just financial support. We need your voice and your passion - you can sign our name to the petition demanding that the Government of Canada halt its fossil fuel subsidies and take immediate, substantial action to dramatically reduce its pollution levels.
sign hereWith your support we can continue our work to create a world where clean air, water, and green spaces are a right, not a privilege. These are just a few examples of the impact your support has:
- Pass more Green legislation like Elizabeth’s Bill C-226 - an Act respecting the development of a national strategy to assess, prevent, and address environmental racism and to advance environmental justice.
- Hold the government to account for cozying up to fossil fuel companies, rather than taking real steps to fight climate change.
Thank you for your continued support and for your commitment to a sustainable future for all.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Pedneault
Deputy Leader, Green Party of Canada
