This spring and fall, the Cariboo Regional District’s Forest Capital of Canada Committee will host a line-up of speakers as part of the 2011 Forest Capital Speaker Series.
These sessions are open to the general public and organizations that are interested in climate action and communities in transition at no cost.
The speaker series will provide access to two leading experts in their respective fields of study. This will enable residents to have the opportunity to learn, debate and discuss climate action and communities in transition.
In May, Dave Leman, co-ordinator of the Northern Climate Change Network, will present Reducing Our Carbon Footprint.
Leman will offer ideas on how individuals and communities can reduce their carbon footprint, with reference to some of the traditional and emerging technologies, practices and programs which can be implemented.
The May sessions are scheduled as follows:
• 100 Mile House: the Lodge, Valley Room, on Tuesday, May 17 at 7 p.m.
• Williams Lake: City Hall council chambers, on Wednesday, May 18 at 7 p.m.
• Quesnel: City Hall council chambers, on Thursday, May 19 at 7 p.m.
