Climate Change
For the 2021 election cycle, the Fulcrum is interviewing the four major parties candidates in Ottawa-Vanier. Here’s our interview with the Liberal Party’s Mona Fortier.
With a summer littered with forest fires, air quality advisories, and heat warnings, climate change has everyone on the hot seat
The University of Ottawa became the first Canadian university to commit to divesting from the fossil fuel industry. But four years later, how is the U of O holding up its promise?
“There needed to be a clear and forceful reaction of the international community,” Packer said in an interview with the Fulcrum. “Unfortunately, what we’ve seen is the opposite.”
“It’s something that maybe they don’t feel like it’s a pressing issue in their lives, but to everyone, it should be,” says U of O student Demetre Kontos.
Thousands of people took to the streets of the downtown core on Friday, marching on Parliament Hill to push elected officials to implement concrete measures to address the climate crisis.
The protest was originally organized as a youth movement inspired by Swedish activist Greta Thunburg. The 16-year-old garnered international attention after her protests in front of Sweden’s parliament buildings.
“Specifically, I was thinking: what is the response in a time when climate change is radically altering the climate and the landscape.”—Jesse Stewart, artist.
If this fight against straws is representative of the amount work we are willing to do, we should be embarrassed.
