A new series of online climate action community meetings was launched in February 2021, co-sponsored by Climate Momentum and the Energy & Environmental Advisory Committee of the City of Stratford. Everyone is invited to participate! And we post video recordings online after each event. Learn from community discussions and contribute your ideas for local climate action!

Join with other volunteers to learn and take action on a range of issues for a green, resilient, and equitable future. Our working groups are supporting the development of a local climate action plan and also exploring actions for urban biodiversity, waste reduction, solidarity with Indigenous peoples, food security, and housing and basic income.

On September 25th in Stratford, a climate shoe strike was held in front of City Hall. Organized by a youth-led intergenerational team of volunteers from the Climate Strike Stratford and Climate Momentum networks, the shoe strike was a COVID-safe way to host a public event to mark the Fridays For Future global day of climate action.

We need a green and equitable recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic! Over 500 organizations across Canada have come together to advocate for a Just Recovery and local volunteers have joined the movement to ensure that the social and economic recovery puts people and planet first.

At its February 10, 2019 meeting, Stratford City Council passed a climate emergency declaration as well as an additional motion to set 2030 and 2050 targets for greenhouse gas emissions reductions and report back to the City’s Infrastructure, Transportation and Safety Committee with those targets within three months.

On Friday September 20th 2019, over 100 students walked out from Stratford Secondary and Elementary Schools,St. Michael’s Secondary, and Nancy Campbell Academy. They marched along city streets to Market Square where over 200 people attended for a Fridays for Future rally and eco info fair with local community groups and projects.
