Thanks! ____________________________________________________________________________ The New Brunswick Climate Change Hub presents a two-day workshop, March 19-20, at the Fredericton Inn. The workshop begins at noon (over lunch), with our keynote speaker, Minister Brenda Fowlie (Environment and Local Government). The aim of the workshop is to provide municipalities and non-profit sector with an opportunity to learn about different approaches to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, initiating community-based challenges, citizen engagement, and writing fund proposals. Environment and Health non-profit groups have an important role to play in raising awareness, engaging citizens, building support for municipal leadership, and to spearhead local action projects. Details can be found on our website www.nbhub.org. Please register as space is limited - i.e. we will operate on a first come first serve basis. There are some funds available to help groups travel to and attend our workshop. The New Brunswick Climate Change Hub is funded by Federal and Provincial governments to coordinate a diverse stakeholder group, consisting of environment / health groups, educators and youth, three levels of government, business and industry, etc. We are working with the Federal 'One Tonne Challenge' and focussing our efforts to support community-level action. We assist municipalities to engage local citizens through community-based challenges and awareness activities. We encourage and facilitate partnerships between community-based organizations and municipal governments, as well as local business and industry, building a culture of mutual support for reducing GHG emissions and our impact on the climate. Please contact Ms. Bunthivy Nou if you have any questions about this workshop: (506) 455-8961 ext 114, or Bunthivy.Nou@nb.lung.ca ____________________________________________________________________________ Did a friend forward this to you?
