The ReIGNITE Talks

Energy, Jobs and Transition

The ReIGNITE Talks is a webinar series that’s re-thinking and re-imagining our planet. Join us each month, as Environmental Defence aims to make sense of the world from an environmental perspective. We’ll hear from thought-leaders and change-makers on topics ranging from pollution, to health, to climate change - all while finding real-world solutions towards a sustainable future.

Join us for the fourth episode, as we take a look at how transitioning off fossil fuels will impact workers and communities in Canada. The good news is that with some smart planning and work, this is a challenge we can meet. Join Catherine Abreu of Climate Action Network, Melina Laboucan-Massimo of Sacred Earth Solar and Jim Stanford of the Centre for Future Work to learn more about how the energy transition can be fair for all.
