Gianne Broughton among panelists on Pints and Politics

On November 6 Gianne Broughton joined Peter Morgan, Tricia Clarkson and Guy Hanchet as a panelist on Trent Radio’s show Pints and Politics.
The panelists explored the most important physical actions our community could take to convert to a low-carbon way of life in response to the looming risk of catastrophic climate.  If Peterborough’s new council asked citizens what actions the City should take, what would we suggest?

A BIG THANK YOU

A BIG THANK YOU

First, a BIG THANK YOU to all of our supporters during the 2018 campaign. We made a good showing, and it gives us a good foundation for promoting Green policies through the coming mandate.

With that goal in mind: Membership Matters.

The Green Party is run democratically by its members, including setting policy.

Locally, only members can:

-elect the local candidate and the local executive

-join a campaign management team

-help select the field trips, social and learning events organized by the local executive

The main thing is: when you become a member, your local leadership can easily get in touch with you, and then everything we do becomes so much easier!

Becoming a member is inexpensive and easy. Just follow these links:

Nature Care Earth Day Awards

Nature Care Earth Day Awards

Purpose:
To raise public knowledge of the many feasible ways that people in our community are caring for the Earth and that, in many cases, they are providing employment.

Concept:
This is not a contest. After verification, everyone who is nominated gets the award. Our goal is to see more and more people doing what the nominees are doing.
The whole process is open to anyone living in the Peterborough-Kawartha riding to participate. Anyone can nominate anyone else. The nominator must get the nominee’s permission and signature on the nomination form, which is also available at ptbogreens.org. Return forms to ptbogreenevents@gmail.com by April 20, 2018.
