Thanks to the incredible support of people like you, 2024 was a milestone year for the Greenpeace Canada Education Fund (GCEF). From new legislative wins to groundbreaking investigations and expanded education tools, our work together helped bridge the knowledge gap between the climate crisis and the solutions we urgently need.<\/p>\n\n
We\u2019re proud to share all of this and more, in our 2024 Impact Report<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n Who We Are: Building Climate Literacy for a Just and Thriving Planet<\/strong><\/p>\n\n At GCEF, we believe that knowledge is power. Our mission is to inform, equip, and empower the Canadian public to take meaningful climate action. As a registered charity, we produce independent, science-backed research and educational resources, free from corporate or government influence, to help people understand environmental issues and advocate for change.<\/p>\n\n Our work is built on four key pillars:<\/p>\n\n Investigating the Fossil Fuel Industry\u2019s Influence and Strengthening the Law<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Fossil fuel companies don\u2019t just pollute the air, they pollute our politics.<\/p>\n\n In 2024, we concluded our largest-ever two-year investigative research project in partnership with Greenpeace Canada. <\/p>\n\n Highlights of this work include:<\/p>\n\n Closing the Climate Knowledge Gap<\/strong><\/p>\n\n We know that Canadians care about climate action. But too often, they don\u2019t know where to start.<\/p>\n\n In 2024, GCEF responded to this challenge by investing in accessible climate education for all. Research has shown that fewer than 1 in 5 Canadians feel well-informed about climate solutions. That\u2019s why we created a new suite of free, science-backed resources on GCEF.ca<\/a> to help teachers, students, and community members understand complex issues and take action.<\/p>\n\n Whether you\u2019re a high school teacher looking for a ready-to-use lesson or a concerned citizen trying to separate fact from fiction, our Education Hub is built for you.<\/p>\n\n What\u2019s Next: A Bold Vision for 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n As we look ahead, one thing is clear: the stakes are higher than ever. Powerful industries continue to lobby against progress. Disinformation continues to spread. And vulnerable communities continue to bear the brunt of climate inaction.<\/p>\n\n But we also see something else: determination, courage, and an unshakable belief that a better world is possible. In 2025, the Greenpeace Canada Education Fund is preparing to take bold steps forward.<\/p>\n\n We\u2019ll be publishing two major investigative reports. The first will take a close look at Canada\u2019s largest forestry company, revealing its lobbying efforts and the public subsidies it receives. The second will explore barriers to equitable access to nature, exposing how systemic inequalities limit many Canadians from experiencing and protecting the natural environment. These investigations will not only expose environmental and social injustices, they will also offer the data and context needed to advocate for real change.<\/p>\n\n We are also continuing to grow our digital Education Hub, making climate learning tools more comprehensive and accessible than ever. Our vision is to become the trusted, go-to source for environmental education in Canada, empowering individuals, educators, and communities with the knowledge to take informed climate action.<\/p>\n\n\n
