Draw the Line with our Community Climate Hubs: Events near you this September 20

· News

On September 20th, communities around the world are mobilizing to demand that our leaders pick a side: injustice, violence and climate destruction — or a just and safe future for all of us.

Climate Reality Project Canada is proud to stand alongside a broad coalition of national partners and join tens of thousands across climate, migrant and economic justice and anti-war movements in a united call for change. Together, we’re reminding decision-makers why they were elected: to act in the public interest, invest in communities and ensure no one is left behind.

Here in Canada, our Community Climate Hubs are leading the charge with rallies and creative gatherings that will bridge movements and show that people everywhere are ready to draw the line.

Scroll down to find out what's going on near you and join us in acting together — for People. For Peace. For the Planet.
