Highlights
An invitation from Charles
I am giving an online talk "Net Zero emissions and Canada: What you can do!" on Tuesday, November 30, 2021 at 6:00 pm ET. The talk is organised in partnership with SCN (Sustainability Consultant Network) and supported by the Green Neighbours 24 and the Green Neighbours Network of Toronto. Please join me as I share my sustainability journey.
What does net zero mean?
Net zero means consumers and citizens working in their communities to reach a carbon-neutral lifestyle and economy. It means we can have both a sustainable environment and economic prosperity.
What does “impact” mean?
It means matching our abilities to the right opportunities so that our actions have collective impact, from influencing friends to supporting green initiatives to lobbying politicians. The opportunities are plentiful and the need is real.
