Broadcast on the evening of the 2024 Saskatoon council elections, Jory and Mark talk about the action we need the new city councillors to take to reduce and ultimately eliminate Saskatoon's greenhouse gas emissions. They talk about priorities, about the dangers of delaying and watering down already-agreed policy, about the multiple benefits that climate-aware policies can achieve, about the need for continued citizen-based campaigns, and about the sense of empowerment that can come from being part of one of those campaigns.
