Lobbying, decarbonization and the financial system
Linda Solomon Wood, The National Observer
The tobacco industry shouldn’t get a say in the fight against smoking, and the fossil fuel industry shouldn’t get a say about how we fight climate change - but in Canada, it does. Senator Rosa Galvez says Canadians need to push harder to ensure science, not industry, shapes our climate policies. She will join Linda Solomon Wood to discuss the impacts of the fossil fuel lobby, and how Canadians can effectively engage with the government to push for change.

Hasta el 12 de noviembre los líderes mundiales se encuentran reunidos en la Conferencia de las Naciones Unidas sobre el Cambio Climático 2021, COP26, atendiendo y buscando soluciones a la amenaza que representa el calentamiento global y la contaminación de los recursos naturales.

Cambio climático: «Canadá debe transformarse para seguir siendo competitivo»
Luis Alberto Laborda, Radio Canadá Internacional
La iniciativa presentada días atrás por el gobierno federal canadiense, para alcanzar la meta de emisiones contaminantes cero en el año 2050, es un paso adelante en la consecución de los compromisos asumidos por el país en el pasado en la materia.
Así lo entiende la senadora nacional Rosa Gálvez, quien manifestó su agrado por la presentación del proyecto, pero advirtió que el éxito de los objetivos ambientales de Canadá depende, en gran medida, de la actitud y el rol que asuman las provincias para combatir el llamado cambio climático.
COVID-19 consequences: Reduced air pollution, less waste, fresh insights
Matthew Guida, Capital Current
More than 20 million cases of COVID-19 have been reported globally to date. There is no overstating of the scope of the pandemic tragedy for humanity.
However, it is also important to recognize that it has resulted in some unexpected environmental benefits — especially when it comes to air pollution and waste management.
In conversation: Canadians must keep up the pressure for green recovery, Sen. Rosa Galvez says
Mitchell Beer, The Energy Mix
The Energy Mix: You bring the expertise of an environmental engineer and a specialty in environmental impact and risk assessment to your role as a Senator. Rightly or wrongly, that’s not the image most Canadians have of the Senate! How readily do your colleagues accept your expertise?
Galvez: In 2015, senators would have fallen off their chairs if they had heard that someone like me was to be appointed to the Senate, because the appointments were partisan. That’s not the way it is today. I can’t speak for my colleagues or whether they accept what I say or believe, but I absolutely feel welcomed by my group of independent senators. I feel respected, heard, and yes, I know I have some influence with them.
