On Thursday evening, Toronto climate activists will be gathering for a candle-lit vigil to send a strong message to Canadian representatives at COP26: stay focused on the Paris goal of limiting warming to 1.5C.  Activists are asking Canada to explicitly commit to this goal, end fossil fuel extraction and join the Beyond Oil and Gas Alliance initiated by Costa Rica and Denmark. 

Climate activists will form a candlelight message:  1.5 C to underline the message: 1.5 to stay alive
