(431) Citizens Why Not?

Published: Dec. 20, 2014, 3:31 a.m.

b'Howdy friends! This week we take a load off by having a very relaxed show. Our main feature this week is an interview with Cheryl McNamara, Volunteer Toronto Organizer for Citizens Climate Lobby, and media coordinator for KAIROS Canada. Cheryl talks to us about what the role of lobbyists are in Canada, and the respective ability of industry and citizens to influence policy. FAIR WARNING! You might be surprised by her answer, but I urge you to have a listen.\\n\\nThroughout the show we also have Kai Reimer-Watts and Nic Petrini-Woolley, one half of the local indie band Gen-Why. Kai is also deeply involved in Toronto 350, as well spearheading an upcoming DOC about Climate Change and the Peoples Climate March in NYC earlier this year. Kai and Nick grace us with their in-studio presence as well as some interesting thoughts on the state of Canadian climate activism.\\n\\nWe do this all this and more for basically nothing, learn more and support us here: www.patreon.com/greenmajority\\n\\nFor full listings and more info about this episode visit:\\nhttps://greenmajoritymedia.wordpress.com/2014/12/19/431-citizens-why-not/'
