REDD side events at Bonn
By Chris Lang, 31st May 2009
"I’m in Bonn for the UN climate negotiations http://unfccc.int/meetings/items/2654.php , or, to give the official title, the thirtieth sessions of the UNFCCC Convention subsidiary bodies - SBSTA and SBI, sixth session of the AWG-LCA and eighth session of the AWG-KP. REDD will feature in several parts of the negotiations. The thought of two weeks of government delegates avoiding the issues, arguing about trivialities and failing to come up with meaningful ways of addressing climate change doesn’t exactly fill me with joy. But I’m looking forward to reporting on what happens in Bonn relating to REDD and I’m hoping for an improvement over the Poznan meeting http://www.redd-monitor.org/tag/poznan/ last year." http://www.redd-monitor.org/2009/05/31/redd-side-events-at-bonn/

The Livable Blog
Our goal as the Livable Region Coalition (LRC) is to provide a voice for those who believe that efficient and sustainable transportation is a cornerstone for the future of the Lower Mainland. We believe that through creating attractive transportation choices, encouraging urban density, and preserving green space and agricultural land, we can make our communities better places to live and grow.
We believe that the provincial government's strategy to pursue excessive development through the Gateway project is detrimental to the well-being of Greater Vancouver. The Gateway project's stated goals of reducing pollution and congestion will not materialize. Evidence for this comes from many sources. Instead, we advocate real solutions that will actually work and will be less expensive.
