Last night we held our Town Hall "Your Earth Your Say - Canadians for Copenhagen". I couldn't have asked for a better night! A great turn out, great ideas, and just a lot of fun. Dr. Ralph Martin, moderator of the event, put together a great way of sharing ideas and insuring that everyone's voice was heard. We gathered in groups of 4 and did role playing activities to discuss policy that should be implemented to aid in the fight against global warming.
My mom was the MC of the night. She did a great job, although it will be the last time I allow my mother to introduce me at an event! :) Mark Austin also had great things to say. I am really interested in the Cool Truro initiative, and am glad to hear that it's working!
We had a few groups show up, including the Campus Sustainability Initiative, Cool Truro, Young Liberals of Canada, and Ecology Action Centre. All of these groups had great displays showing demonstrating their community action against climate change. I'd like to thank them all for coming out last night.
I would like to give a special thanks to those who helped me organize this event, including Jenna, Alisha, Stephanie, Becky, Mike and Sarah. You guys helped me so much with everything, and I really appreciate it.
Finally, thanks to everyone who came out and gave opinions and comments
this cause.
Until next time! :)
