The new date is TUESDAY, DECEMBER 11th. We are happy to invite you to join us at the Grandview Calvary Baptist Church at 1803 East 1st Ave (near Commercial). We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this change of date causes anyone.

This public talk has been given hundreds of times in the UK and was the main tool in increasing the numbers that have stood up to rebel. We would like that to happen here in Canada. 
This talk will share the latest climate science on where our planet is heading, discuss some of the current psychology around climate change denial, and offer solutions through the study of social movements.

Doors open at 6:30 for snacks & beverages.
Indigenous welcome and presentation at 7:00 pm

There will opportunity for folks to talk with one another and meet others from your area. 

If you are able, please bring a snack/cookies/veg or fruit plate to share, we will have tea, coffee and juice as beverages. (bring cup, plate and utensils).

We will have a portion of the program for Q & A. 

Wheelchair accessible. 

"In this public talk, members of the Extinction Rebellion will share the latest climate science on where our planet is heading, discuss some of the current psychology around climate change denial, and offer solutions through the study of social movements.

This is an emergency. 

The deadly heatwave that gripped the world over the summer is only a glimpse of what is to come if we do not properly address the crisis. The government and environmental NGOs have failed to do so. We need to build a mass movement that is prepared to accept what is happening and act accordingly. We need change. We need to rebel." - Extinction Rebellion
