Kamloops

Kamloops has many environmental, sustainability and other “greenish” clubs and organizations that often have overlapping interests. Better communication would facilitate collaboration and a stronger, more unified voice on community issues.

What do you want a Kamloops sustainability network to look like? How would it ideally function? Help us brainstorm a vision for connectivity and then formulate a plan to implement it.

Last month, the David Suzuki Foundation and the Pembina Institute published "Climate Leadership and Economic Prosperity", the first Canadian study to examine the regional impacts of a strong climate policy on employment and the economy.

This month's BCSEA Climate & Energy Solutions Webinar features Matt Horne and Josha MacNab from the Pembina Institute presenting the report's findings, with a specific focus on BC. Join us to learn more, and to share ideas on how we can communicate the contents of their report to BC decision-makers and the general public.

BCSEA presents a monthly "Climate & Energy Solutions Webinar" on topics of importance to the crisis of climate change and the many sustainable energy solutions that we need to embrace.

This month, SolarBC’s Nitya Harris and BCSEA’s Guy Dauncey will explain how solar thermal systems work, review what's happening with solar hot water around the world, and tell you how you can install a solar thermal system on your own roof, benefiting from SolarBC's grants and incentives.

Join us from the comfort of your office or home for this one-hour Webinar to learn more about Solar Hot Water.

If you have opinions or experiences you would like to share about walking in Kamloops, researchers, planners and health professionals want to hear them at an upcoming town hall meeting.
