Later is too late

Shelagh and Julie are members of Seniors for Climate Victoria, a group of concerned citizens connected to a new, nonpartisan, national network of seniors across Canada. Both are concerned by climate breakdown and the future we are leaving for future generations.  "It is increasingly clear that we’re already in serious trouble: climate destabilization and wild weather, biodiversity loss and ecological breakdown, food and water insecurity, and social collapse. We do not deny the above problems, but our talk also focuses on the fact that we can still create a future that is safe, clean, equitable, healthy and beautiful. This is only possible if we take immediate and drastic action. Later is too late! "

Shelagh Butterworth Levey is a retired teacher, mother and grandmother. Born and raised in England, she lived in East Africa and Jamaica before settling on the Saanich Peninsula, where she and John raised their four children. Shelagh has been involved in environmental action in her career and the community. She is the recipient of two environmental awards from Saanich Municipality.

Julie Johnston is also a retired teacher and a sustainability education consultant with GreenHeart Education. She is a committed climate emergency activist and an associate with the Climate Emergency Institute based in Victoria.
