Make the Conservative government wake up and protect our environment

STOP CLIMATE CHAOS
GLOBAL DAY OF ACTION ON NOVEMBER 4, 2006

On November 4, 2006, people in at least 48 countries around the world will rise to the challenge of the climate crisis, as part of a global day of action to save the planet. ACT for the Earth, the Canadian Youth Climate Coalition, and the Climate Chaos Coalition are calling for demonstrations throughout Canada on November 4 to demand immediate action to save the climate. The day of action has also been endorsed by Greenpeace and the Canadian Peace Alliance.

November 4 actions are planned in 48 countries around the world. Information is included below about the 5 Canadian cities protesting so far. More information at: www.ACTfortheEarth.org/climatechaos

Kind of obvious I think.

An Ipsos Reid poll commissioned by the Vancouver Sun says that the people of BC do not trust our government or industry to protect the environment.

The poll said that just 30% of BCers trust our government to take care of our environment. I think that says something about our government, both provincially and federally.

Yesterday the government created all kinds of hoopla to announce that they simply would be making another announcement later in the House of Commons about a Clean Air Act.  I think it is symptomatic of the fact that they have no desire to deal with our coutries real enviromental issues like climate change.  It is time that we call the Conservatives on thier bluff, and demand that they act on their promised environmental platform, rather than just paying it lip-service.
