In light of the indisputable evidence of rapid and devastating climate change, a coalition of students, faculty, staff, and community members have joined together to form the MUN Climate Action Coalition. As part of Climate Action Week (September 20-27, 2019), the Coalition will be calling on Memorial University of Newfoundland to sign the MUN Crisis Pledge: Fighting Climate Change through Transformation.

The MUN Crisis Pledge states that MUN will commit to the following actions:

  1. Declare a climate emergency; and
  2. Work with the Climate Action Coalition to take meaningful action to meet IPCC targets.

As the only university in our province, Memorial University has a critical role to play in advancing knowledge and taking leadership on climate action.

Date: Thursday, September 26, 2019
Time: 3:00pm
Location: The Loft, University Centre (UC 3013), Memorial University
