Share your climate story to hold polluters accountable
Take a minute to think about your climate story, then hit record when you're ready!
We’ve created a simple tool to help you record a short video telling your personal story about what the climate crisis has cost you, and calling on the federal government to deliver an Emissions Cap. We’ll collect them all into a massive video petition and deliver them right to Prime Minister Trudeau and his Cabinet.
We want you to share if wildfires, heat waves, drought, or storms have affected you or a loved one — your story and the stories of hundreds of other Leadnow members could go a long way. Will you record a video on why it’s so important to you that the federal government protect our climate and hold polluters accountable?
By submitting a video message, you’re giving permission to Leadnow to amplify your video — including sharing with MPs, the media, and on social media.

How to record your video:
- Before you start: Think about what you want to say. Take a minute or two to gather your thoughts. Your personal story is what's going to have the biggest impact on decision-makers so be sure to speak from the heart.
- Talking points:
- 1) Share what impact the climate crisis has had on you and people in your life, in big or small ways. Have you been impacted by wildfires, or wildfire smoke? Have you experienced heat waves or droughts? Have your insurance rates been impacted by the climate crisis?
- 2) Make sure to end by asking the federal government to pass a bold Emissions Cap to hold polluters accountable for fueling the climate crisis.
- When you're ready to record: press the record button in the tool below (it looks like a small video camera and says "record" below it). If you are prompted to turn your camera on, please do so. You can also upload a pre-recorded video using the "upload" button.
- Share your story: After you press the record button and enable your camera, you'll get a 3 second countdown, and then the tool will begin recording.
- Start by saying your name, share your story and your opinion, and remember to speak from the heart.
- Note: You will only be able to record 30 seconds of video, so please be concise.
- When you're done sharing your story, click anywhere on the screen to end the recording.
- You can watch your video by clicking "Review Recording" and if you'd like to do it again, click "Re-record". When you're happy with the video, just press "Accept" and it will be added to the video petition.
- Share this tool! Please pass this tool along to your friends and family who are affected by the climate crisis, to help make this video petition huge!
