Think global, act local
Climate change affects all of us, no matter where we live. Yet it is not global-scale solutions that will fix the issue. We need to make changes in our everyday lives to fight the climate crisis.
This is where the Saint John Climate Hub comes in. It’s an organisation set to unify voices around decarbonization and how we can advance Saint John in the race to net zero, through policy initiatives at a local level.
"We strive to be the missing link between Municipal government, environmental organizations and the community. For far too long citizens have been disengaged, or wanted to be part of the movement with no idea where to start or how to contribute. The Climate Hub will be that opportunity to steward ideas, present to council our input and provide guidance and much needed support to our city's and region's sustainability initiatives," Ashley Anthony, Atlantic Regional Engagement Coordinator for Climate Reality Project and local Saint John resident.
We want Saint John to be at the forefront of decarbonization and lead the way to a cleaner world.
If you are interested in being part of Saint John Climate Hub, join us on Facebook & Discord.

“We’re not against development—but not heavy industry, not 150 metres from our homes, and not at the cost of a thriving ecosystem in a time of accelerating climate change.”
Sign up to be a Community Climate Hub! We will work with you to look at your skills and find meaningful ways to be involved in the change happening within your region.
The Community Climate Hubs (CCH) program recognizes and believes in the power of citizens and grassroots community-led action in building social movements that propel municipalities forward to implement climate justice-focused policies, and works to empower and connect these citizens and grassroots groups across municipalities together through the Community Climate Hub model and overarching Hub network.
