Bill C 372 An Act Respecting Fossil Fuel Advertising withDr. Leah Temper and Dr. Sehjal Bhargavawww.youtube.com Bill C-372: An Act Respecting Fossil Fuel Advertising In a nutshell: Bill C-372 aims to address the severe public health and environmental impacts of fossil fuel consumption and production by prohibiting the advertising, sponsorship, and promotion of fossil fuel companies, products, and services. Details Climate Commitments: The Canadian Government has committed to reducing fossil fuel consumption and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050 to combat climate change. Public Health Crisis: Fossil fuel pollution causes significant health issues, including premature deaths, respiratory illnesses, cancer, and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Extreme weather events, intensified by climate change, further threaten public safety and health. Historical Precedent: Canada has previously restricted advertising for tobacco, gambling, alcohol, and pharmaceuticals to mitigate public health crises. Rationale Health Impact: Fossil fuel air pollution is responsible for up to 34,000 premature deaths annually in Canada and over 8 million globally. Misleading Advertising: Current fossil fuel advertisements often mislead the public about the environmental and health risks, hindering informed decision-making and delaying the transition to cleaner energy sources. Call to Action The Government of Canada must legislate a comprehensive ban on advertising, sponsorship, and promotion of fossil fuel companies, products, and services to protect public health and enact the principal concepts in the bill An Act Respecting Fossil Fuel Advertising. By enacting this bill, Canada aims to align its advertising regulations with its climate goals and public health commitments, similar to its approach with other harmful products in the past. In August 2022, France became the first European country to ban fossil fuel ads but some argue it did not go far enough.
