Climate change and population growth


More and more people are migrating to our area and this is changing the land. Do you ever wonder how this impacts our community forests and whether we can still aim at being sustainable? Come hear experts discuss different scenarios for the future of our land and community forests.

WHAT: Dr Romella Glorioso, renowned landscape and strategic planner, will present multiple scenarios to address how Climate Change and the migration of more and more people to our area, affect Community Forests. She will discuss how local forest planning and land use will be impacted and whether we can be sustainable.

After the talk, a panel of forestry and sustainability experts will tie Dr. Glorioso's ideas to what is happening locally.

WHEN: September 22, 7:00 pm.

WHERE: Schubert Centre, 3505 30 Ave, Vernon.

About Me

My photo
I have been a resident of Coldstream since 1976. I have had 15 years of experience on Council, 3 years as Mayor. As a current Councillor I am working to achieve fair water and sewer rates and to ensure that taxpayers get fair treatment. The current direction regarding water supply is unsustainable and I am doing all I can to get the most cost effective water supply possible.
