In this week’s episode of This Must be The Place, Shawna speaks to passionate climate advocate Emma Norton. She is the Director of Government Relations at the Climate Emergency Unit ( a project of the David Suzuki Institute). Not afraid to “pound the climate emergency drum”, she is working tirelessly to reduce emissions through deep-energy retrofits and more responsive policy.

In this episode:

• We discover why her passion for the environment was ignited in university.

• We learn that she has TWO jobs-including a non-profit that she cofounded.

• Learn why she doesn’t think governments are acting fast enough and what she’s doing to sound the alarm on the climate emergency.
