We're going to be having our first meeting of the semester this Wednesday at 5:30pm in JDH as usual. If you haven't been available before, please come out! If you have a suggestion for a better time for the rest of the semester, let us know and we'll try to go with when the majority of people are available.
There's some cool stuff coming up this year so far; TD has a 'go green challenge' we can make a video to win 20,000$. There's an environmental conference at the end of March at UPEI. There are people organizing worldwide for climate change in April, something called 'Chain Reaction' from the people at Climate Pledge of Resistance. And of course, interesting films being shown. E-mail us if you want any information on this.
Meanwhile, some news:
Check out the province's online pre-budget consultation. Have your say!
