Paris climate deal can go further, proponents say

Published in The Catholic Register on October 9, 2016

Groups concerned about man-made climate change are applauding Canada’s ratification of the Paris climate accord Oct. 5.

“This is all very good news and we’re going to continue to push for more so we can see real meaningful action to address climate change and support the well-being of Canadians across the country,” said Citizens for Public Justice (CPJ) senior policy analyst Karri-Munn Venn.

“We’re quite happy with the ratification of the Paris agreement and the fact the Paris agreement is entering into force at the same time,” said Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace advocacy and research officer Geneviève Talbot.
