Next Friday, The Guild will play host to a provincial leaders debate and benefit concert with the overall goal of raising awareness over climate change. The concert, organized by the Student Climate Change Coalition, aims to bring islanders, especially youth, together and take into consideration our environment.
“We’re putting on this joint event so that youth can get a sense of where the parties stand on the environment,” said group founder Justin Douglas. “We’re allowing students to submit questions so that their concerns are brought forward.”
The event, titled “Global Warning” begins at 6:30 on May 18th, and will feature Progressive Conservative leader Pat Binns, Island New Democrats leader Dean Constable, leader of the Greens Sharon Labchuk and Liberal environment critic Richard Brown. The debate will last 50 minutes, and will focus on the environment.
Following the debate, islanders are invited to attend a concert featuring some of the best maritime acts, including: The Museum Pieces, Smothered In Hugs, Annapilla, Boxer the Horse, Stride, Epaulettes, The Barnkats and Eli MacDougall.
Proceeds from the concert will go toward the legacy program, where trees are planted for every high school and university graduate for 2007 in the province.
The Student Climate Change Coalition is a non-partisan student group created to raise awareness for climate change and empower young people to make informed decisions.
