Description

The Oakville Community Foundation, alongside Halton Environmental Network and Sheridan College, collaborated to produce a report on the issue of climate change in our community.

The report is split into sections that look at the health impacts of climate change on our community, at ourselves and at possible future projections in a world where no or limited action is taken to address climate change.

Comments

In Partnership with Oakville Community Foundation, Sheridan College & Halton Environmental Network.

We are also indebted to our funding partners: Sagen Canada, The Larry & Gerry Wilson Family Fund, and the Alma Fund.

As Elder Peter Schuler advises, when we work together as a community we can become a powerful force of change.

We encourage everyone reading this report to support and help grow the local tree canopy, which not only makes our Town a beautiful place to live but enhances carbon capture and contributes to a healthy community.
