Ways to help
The natural world and the people who live in it matter deeply to us. For those of us with children and grandchildren, we know that they and their children will inherit the world we leave behind. Let’s ensure it’s one they can thrive in.
Start with the smallest step: tell your MP to electrify the economy. It takes a few minutes, from home.

Politicians listen when seniors speak.
Seniors are the largest, most reliable voting bloc in Canada. One in every three voters is a senior.

Find a local group near you
In the map below, you can find Seniors for Climate local contacts across the country.
Local groups meet for coffee and a conversation about climate, often at the library.
This page will point the map to the closest group near you using your postal code, and can help you get in touch with them. There are also resources to help you start your own local group.
Manually search the map below for refined results.
If there is a pin near you
Good, that pin is a person near you.
- Click the pin and read the contact name.
- Email or phone them, tell them who you are, where you live, and ask them what they have planned and what kind of help they might need. If you aren’t sure, a great place to start is planning to write some letters to MPs together over coffee and a kitchen table.
They have been waiting for somebody to do exactly this.
If there is nothing near you yet, or you want to start one
Then you are the one who starts it. Most of the pins on that map began as one person deciding their town should be on it. You do not need a hall, a budget, or any experience of organizing.

Every big change started as a few friends and neighbours sitting around a kitchen table.
Raise your hand to do something locally
Add your name and your town. We will put you on the map so the next person looking at it finds you.
Tell us belowMake a simple plan
Add a place people can gather, as well as how they can get in touch with you and each other. That can just be an email address and a phone number for now, and a living room or a kitchen table to write letters on.
Invite four people to join you
Make enough coffee for six people just in case.
Resources for taking action

Later is too late
We owe it to future generations. The wisdom of Indigenous teachings calls on us to act for the next seven generations. It’s our moral responsibility.
Wildfires, floods, heat domes, and rising seas are already disrupting lives across Canada. We know time is running out.
