Global Warming

A Labour-Environmental Dialogue

[poster attached]

 

June 15, 2004

5-7pm

 

Discussion and pizza

Maritime Labour Centre

111 Victoria Drive

 

This is the first in a series of forums where panelists will explore
strategies for the environmental and labour movements to work together
to address key issues.  The first focuses on the threats posed by global
warming.  All life on earth is being profoundly affected by climate
change caused by human actions.  Unions are beginning to respond and
build links with environmental groups who have made this issue a
priority.  CEP, for example, has actively supported Kyoto, speaking out
publicly and educating its membership.  Collectively, we need to take
urgent action to address what's happening.

 

Panelists:

Karen Cooling

National Representative, CEP

 

Alex Boston

Climate Change Specialist, David Suzuki Foundation

 

Sponsored by the VDLC, Labour Environmental Alliance Society, Hollyhock
and the Labour Environmental Election Forum
