Community Idea Exchange on
Smart Growth & Sustainability,
OCTOBER 17TH, 2009
Another Community Idea Exchange Success!
More organizations than ever attended to inform residents on the latest topics of debate or general interest and provide information.
Eric Novak, CHEX TV and personally trained by Al Gore lead a discussion on Climate Change and the Green Economy. David Donnelly discussed the report “Places to Sprawl” by Environmental Defence which is critical of Durham Region’s conformity plans to the award-winning Provincial Growth Plan - “Places to Grow”.
Traditionally, everyone enjoyed my segment called “Your 2 minutes of fame” where each group showcase their activities in the community. Everything from City Advisory Committees, Environmental Groups, Heritage, Community Gardening, and social agencies like the United Way and more. Students gain helpful overviews on volunteer opportunities to collect those community hours too!
