As we watch the fires still burning in Colorado and California, many of us are anxious about the future our children and grandchildren will inhabit. Government leaders have proclaimed a climate emergency and yet it still feels like business as usual. “Our house is on fire", as Greta Thunberg reminds us regularly, but there are no fire engines in sight. 
Scientists tell us that we have approximately 10 years to turn everything around and get on a path that will take us to a Zero Carbon economy. Can it be done? 
Seth Klein’s new book, "A Good War", is structured around lessons from the Second World War – the last time Canada faced an existential threat. Canada’s wartime experience, Klein contends, provides an inspirational reminder that we have done this before. We have mobilized in common cause across class, race and gender, and entirely retooled our economy in the space of a few short years. 
Join us for an important ZOOM conversation with SETH KLEIN, ELIZABETH MAY and ANJALI APPADURAI, three prominent Canadian activists who will offer their perspectives on the climate crisis and the role we can play to mitigate its impacts and create a bold new vision based on justice and right relationship with our Earth. 
How can we pull together, as we did during WW2, to fight our common enemy, global warming?
