Connected to every problem that faces the world, there are infinite possibilities for positive, sustainable change. Rather than a) sticking to business as usual or b) kvetching non-stop, why don't we grasp some of these possibilities? Do something, change something, make the world a better place.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
From the Montreal Gazette:
More than three out of four leading Canadian bureaucrats, scientists and industry leaders believe the Harper government is missing the boat on “greening” the economy and adopting the wrong policies to address climate change, according to a new international study.
The survey of 5,109 senior stakeholders from key sectors in government, industry and academia was conducted by McAllister Opinion Research and is one of the largest studies of its kind to assess the opinions of leading government and professional experts.
Out of 4,282 Canadian experts who participated in the survey, which also included U.S. and European experts, 77 per cent rated Canada’s efforts at addressing climate change as poor or very poor, while 75 per cent had the same opinion about the country’s performance in developing a green economy.
