[Webinar Recording] Elders Want Climate Action NOW!

Speaker - Dr. Carole Christopher - Founder and leader of the SPEC Elders Circle

Carole will briefly introduce the SPEC Elders Circle and describe what it means to be an Elder and how we develop elder qualities. It’s crucial in this time of deep social polarization to have voices of experience, balance, and wisdom. We’ll look at the sources of influence that Elders can bring to the big issues of our day and the movement to build alliance with younger generations and support their role in the world of the future. We’ll look specifically and in some detail at the pan-Canadian effort to engage seniors/elders to speak up for effective climate action on Oct 1st (International Day of Older Persons and National Seniors Day in Canada) and offer suggestions and ideas for how to get involved (or encourage action) in your own communities.
