September is only the beginning. On October 5th, exactly one week following the massive global climate strike and two days before the first leaders’ debate, Greenpeace will be using art for social change to keep the momentum going for climate action. The first action of its kind: we will be collaborating with indigenous artists and local volunteers to create huge street art murals in Montreal and Vancouver.
We need your help to amplify the message around our mural project in Vancouver to show political leaders that this mobilization is not just a flash in the pan.
Here’s what you can do to take part in one of our most beautiful actions!
Greenpeace Canada is training and engaging volunteers on new forms of activism.

The elections are coming fast and the four upcoming years will be crucial in deciding what our future looks like. In September, we expect millions of people to march across the world to protest against climate inaction.
