Cariboo Regional District announces "Forest Capital Lecture Series"

This spring and fall, the Cariboo Regional District’s (CRD) Forest Capital of Canada Committee will host an exciting 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 two of today’s hottest topics: Climate Action and Communities in Transition.

In May, Mr. Dave Leman, Coordinator of the Northern Climate Change Network will be presenting Reducing Our Carbon Footprint. Mr. 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 easily implemented.
