SUMMARY:Mobilizing Canada for the climate emergency: How proportional representation can help.
DESCRIPTION:\nMobilizing Canada for the climate emergency: How proportional representation can help. \nREGISTER HERE\nWhat do proportional representation and citizens’ assemblies have to do with climate change?\nIn this webinar hosted by Fair Vote Toronto, Seth Klein will discuss:\n\n\nthe political obstacles that have undermined concerted climate action since scientists first warned of the climate crisis close to 40 years ago\n\n\nwhat lessons we can learn from what Canada achieved during the Second World War, when our country faced a different kind of existential threat\n\n\nand what role proportional representation and citizens’ assemblies can play in producing climate solutions\n\n\nSeth Klein’s A Good War: Mobilizing Canada for the Climate Emergency was published in September 2020.
