Seminar: Awakening to the Climate Crisis: a Buddhist Perspective
2024-01-07 12:45 - 15:00 UTC | Toronto Buddhist Church, 1011 Sheppard Avenue West, Toronto, ON, M3H 2T7
Join Ray Nakano in a conversation about our Climate Crisis and what we can do about it as Buddhists.
The United Nations says that we are on track for a “hellish” 3C degrees of global heating. Climate scientists around the world have been warning us for years. Hurricanes on the East Coast. Heat waves on the West Coast. Drought in the Prairies. The wildfires experienced across Canada this past summer are the worst on record: bigger, more intense, and more numerous. We are experiencing what will be our hottest year ever. There is no ‘new normal’. It will get hotter, drier, wetter…all because we are in the climate crisis. And that’s with only a 1.2C degree temperature increase so far.
If you are concerned about our climate crisis and what to know what you can do about it, please attend this in-person session.
