BC’s Need To Confront Climate Change
In the podcast below, originally broadcast on Cortes Community Radio, he talks about the Climate Summit in New York and lays out a three point program that British Columbia could follow to bring its emissions under control.
“It is pretty frustrating to consider the lack of action over the past few years, but just this morning Ban Ki-moon is quoted as saying I will link arms with those marching for climate action. So he will be in the streets this coming weekend with the people who are coming to New York for this historic climate rally. That’s just one example that something is changing. It is also clear that we are running out of time because we have this limited carbon pollution budget and we are fast approaching dangerous thresholds,” he says.
