An Open Appeal to Premier Eby and B.C. MLAs
Appeal to Premier Eby
Dear Premier Eby, and every British Columbia MLA,
Greetings! We are the West Coast Climate Action Network. We have 236 member groups across B.C., representing hundreds of thousands of voters. Our member organizations have authorized us to speak out.
LONDON (AP) — Greta Thunberg was detained by British police on Tuesday alongside other climate activists who gathered outside a central London hotel to disrupt a major oil and gas industry conference.

United States domestic oil production hit an all-time high last week, contrasting with efforts to slice heat-trapping carbon emissions by the Biden administration and world leaders.
And it conflicts with oft-repeated Republican talking points of a Biden “war on American energy.”
