Hannah Bayne, Graduate Student in the School of Public Health, UAlberta
Endorsement:
I endorse the CAUA's Climate Action Plan because it is comprehensive, justice-oriented, and evidence-based. This plan moves the University of Alberta forward and would make this institution a true leader in sustainability and the fight against climate change. It will benefit the students, staff, faculty, and community partners of the University of Alberta while ensuring we do our part to address the climate crisis at a time when the IPCC says we have a "brief and rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all."
Endorsed 28 June 2024
