Burning fossil fuels pushes up temperatures, hurting everything we love. Extreme rains flood communities. Unnatural heat waves cause wildfires that destroy homes, fill skies with smoke and send vulnerable Canadians and New Brunswickers to hospital with heat stroke and asthma. Ordinary Canadians and New Brunswickers pay unfair costs – higher insurance, higher taxes to repair infrastructure, higher food costs when crops are destroyed. Oil and gas companies make billions while people suffer.
