Climate Justice Corner

The Climate Justice Corner (CJC) is a small area in the Main Library that is a ‘go-to place’ for you to find books, information, resources and items, whether you are looking to shrink your carbon footprint, get involved in community activities and efforts, or broaden your understanding. 

The Climate Justice Corner is for community members of all ages who: wish to be part of a community where we care for each other and the earth; want to take climate action; want to contribute to a healthy, sustainable, low carbon, climate resilient and equitable community; want to connect with community and get involved with community organizations, events and activities; are curious about climate change and climate justice. It aims to: 

• Be an accessible location where community members can find resources to get informed, act, and get involved. 
• Connect community members to relevant resources, activities and events by local community organizations. 
• Broaden the understanding of climate change and climate action.  Climate justice recognizes that not everyone is impacted equally by the climate emergency, and supports everyone’s rights, safety, health, homes, and livelihoods as we transition to a low carbon society and adapt to climate impacts. Climate justice addresses the root causes of the climate emergency and supports new regenerative, caring, and reciprocal systems.  There is no climate justice without Indigenous rights and leadership, and without social and racial justice.
