This is where we need your help!<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><b>We are seeking your assistance in identifying local environmental organizations to be included in the study and in the Green Book. It should take only about 5-10 minutes of your time.<br></b><br>Please review the 4 different sheets in the attached excel document. The first sheet identifies the steps and inclusion criteria. The second sheet asks you to review the existing list and add organizations and/or their contact information. The third sheet provides you with an overview of the categories and subcategories that might help you to think of environmental organization that should be included. Finally, on the last sheet, please identify other individuals who you think should provide us with information.<br><br>There are three ways to provide feedback:<br>1) You can add information to the excel file and email it to Felix Munger at<br> <span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:mung1340@mylaurier.ca" target="_blank" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; ">mung1340@mylaurier.ca</a>;<br>2) You can simply reply to this email with your suggestions; or<br>3) You can simply forward any existing relevant list(s) that you may have to<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="mailto:mung1340@mylaurier.ca" target="_blank" style="color: blue; text-decoration: underline; ">mung1340@mylaurier.ca</a>.<br>Please send your feedback by November 27, 2010.
