The Eyes and Ears of the Green Economy |
Join Our Photo Rally!
We are the eyes and ears of Canada's new green economy. Young people are calling for a historic effort to fundamentally transform the way our society produces and consumes energy-- creating new social and economic systems with clean, just, and sustainable energy supplies. We are ready to build a green jobs economy that provides stable employment while addressing our moral and legal obligations to reduce our emissions and address the climate crisis. Everyone is talking about a need for a new economy. As youth we need to be part of defining it. It will be young people who work in that economy, and our children who live its legacy. Our answer to this challenge is green jobs. Show our elected officials that you're ready for change, you're ready for a clean and just future, and you want green jobs...NOW!! Send us a photo with your message today! How? It’s simple! Pose with a sign saying one of the following:
· I’m ready for green jobs, are you?
· The Earth is hiring, Green my Job!
· Time for Green Jobs (incorporate a clock in your sign!)
· This is what Green Jobs looks like
· Have another idea for a sign? Show us what you’ve got!
