‘A liveable future’

Dear Editor:

RE: Time to ‘wake up’? (June 22).

Everybody in the world who drives a gas-powered vehicle or burns fossil fuels to keep warm in the winter (and stay cool during increasingly hot summers) can learn from Ron Moore’s advice and actions to reduce his own climate-heating greenhouse gas emissions. 

We all need to do our part. For Delsie Drover (Bubbles in the wind, June 29) to suggest we in Canada “are just blowing bubbles in the wind” until we stop ignoring China’s pollution, it’s also critical to reduce our own emissions. 

Those aren’t bubbles floating over our heads these days. It’s smoke from record wildfires made worse by Canada’s failure to rein in the burning of fossil fuels. 

Thank you Ron Moore for continuing to urge us to do what we can to reduce carbon emissions – and to give our kids a chance for a liveable future.
