Transcript

-How at Lakehead can we start practicing Sustainability in a deeper way that's not just emissions reduction and standard recycling but go a lot deeper?

-How does climate action connect to your work? Because climate change is affecting all sectors of society and if we want to meet targets, everyone has to get involved

-It's not just greenhouse gas reduction. Climate Change is a human problem, not a science problem.
