A Worker-led Movement - from Fossil Fuels to Renewable Energy
Join the Mir Centre at Selkirk College for a conversation with Bruce Wilson and Larissa Stendie on transitioning to renewable energy.
Iron & Earth is a worker-led movement of over 800 Canadian fossil fuel industry and Indigenous workers who are leading the transition to renewable energy. Iron & Earth empowers worker members to develop sustainable energy projects, deliver trainings, run advocacy campaigns, and further the goal of an environmentally safe and socially just planet for everyone.
- This evet is post-poned until an in-person gathering can occurr.
We recognize world peace will come, not through one simple act, but rather as the final outcome of thousands of smaller undertakings. Dialogue plays a key role and we seek to encourage this with inspiring speakers promoting cultures of peace in our communities.
