“Climate activists are sometimes depicted as dangerous radicals, but the truly dangerous radicals are the countries that are increasing the production of fossil fuels” - UN Secretary Antonio Guterres. 

The warning that the latest IPCC report has sounded is clear: we don’t have time for incremental change or false solutions. Change must be transformational, and it must include phasing out our dangerous dependence on fossil fuel use and production.  

The Ecology Action Centre (EAC) stands in solidarity with Mi’kmaq rights holders and communities, local fishers, and members of the Alton and Brentwood communities who are standing up for all Nova Scotians in their opposition to the Alton Natural Gas storage project. These communities have not given their Free, Prior and Informed Consent, have had their concerns repeatedly ignored, and bear the brunt of the risks of this project.
