Naomi Klein points out that “This march is our chance to show exactly how lowering our emissions in line with scientific imperatives can build a fairer and more equitable society -- by respecting First Nations land rights; by creating countless "climate" jobs that pay a living wage; by encouraging community-controlled renewable energy; by making affordable and reliable transit a top policy priority; by investing in the low-carbon caring-giving and sanitation work that is primarily done by immigrants; by opening our borders to those displaced by climate change; and by changing our food system to encourage more local production and to guarantee food for all.”
