Description
From Here to There 4: Cultivating a Lighter Footprint
How can we cultivate a lighter footprint in Vancouver, especially as cheap energy sources peak and climate change intensifies?
In partnership with the Vancouver Food Policy Council and Village Vancouver Transition Society, MOV is pleased to host an interactive evening of presentations, discussion, and visioning from local innovators, practitioners, and community members that encourage people to think about our local circumstances and how we can map a course for change here in Vancouver.
Focusing on the ‘Top 5’ biggest potential Footprint-reducing contributions provided by the Greenest City Lighter Footprint “Feet to the Fire” committee, From Here to There 4 will explore effective actions we can take to reduce our ecological footprint.
From Here to There Part Four is presented in special collaboration with the Sustenance Festival. Now in its fifth year, Sustenance 2013 will be a pop up incubator of ideas, spurring dialogue about how individuals and communities can work together to green our city and strengthen our local food system.
