SUMMARY:The BIG ASK – February Climate Meet-up Beaches East York
DESCRIPTION:What is the BIG ASK?\nIt is a meet-up of people who want the government to take serious action on climate change, who are looking for others from the riding (young, old and in all your glorious diversity!) to join us in lending weight to this demand.\nAs outlined in the petition from late 2019 that started this: we want our MP Nathaniel Erskine-Smith to pressure the Liberal government to adopt more aggressive climate targets and milestones. Canada has committed to net-zero by 2050 with milestones every 5 years – but with our 4-year electoral cycle these milestones effectively defer real action and turn it into a political football. We have fewer than 8 years of global carbon budget remaining to keep to 1.5°C – there is no more time to waste. We want to hold our political leaders accountable at a grassroots level, on our terms. For this, we need credibility – we need a base. We want to cultivate this base by mobilizing the people of this riding, slowly but surely, around climate and environmental action.\nCome defy complacency, fear and the general odds of keeping to 1.5°C by coming to our first meet up of 2020 on February 11th. Let’s make 2020 about building a steady groundswell of support for focused and aggressive federal climate action, and community collaboration.\n
