Staying Livable, Building Resilience and Being Smart

I recently attended the FCM sustainabilily conference in Ottawa ( Feb 2012) and learned so much about what we must all do to adapt to climate change. There can be no doubt that CSL like all other cities will have to adjust its policies and modify its practices in order to become more sustainable and in order to adapt to the conditions of the future. We all will have to do our share to reduce, reuse and retrofit our homes and our behaviours to the new realities. Please take a look at this presentation on Staying Livable, Building Resilience, and Being Smart by professor
Thomas Homer-Dixon of the Balsillie School of International Affairs, Waterloo Institute for Complexity and Innovation.
