Green economy

Canada and the world are faced with two two major crises: a deep economic recession and climate change. Thousands of the world’s leading scientists recently gathered in Copenhagen for an emergency climate summit. They had one overriding message for us all: climate change is even  worse than we thought and urgent action is needed more than ever—action that is bound to have significant economic impacts. At the same time Canada continues to shed hundreds of thousands of jobs in the manufacturing, mining and forest products industries.

What do you think that governments and businesses need to do to ensure Canadians a prosperous AND green future?
