<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>At the Community Forum Series, you'll learn how local action on
climate change contributes to a progressive and sustainable community, and have
the opportunity to share your thoughts on the Climate Action Plan that’s under
development.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>A community Climate Action Plan is currently being developed through
the <A href="http://www.climateactionwr.ca/participate/community-forums/"
target=_blank>ClimateActionWR</A> partnership between REEP Green Solutions,
Sustainable Waterloo Region, the Region of Waterloo, the City of Cambridge, the
City of Kitchener and the City of Waterloo. This action plan will include
strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from residential, business,
transportation and agricultural activities in our</DIV>
<DIV>community over the next 10 years, and will also set an overall reduction
target for Waterloo Region.</DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>This Community Forum Series is your opportunity to learn about the current
direction of the action plan and engage in two-way discussion with a panel of
community leaders about the strategies for local action against climate
change.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Through collaboration, we can use our collective knowledge, progressive
ideas and passion for Waterloo Region to shape the local climate action plan and
reduction target. Join in on the conversation by attending one of the multiple
forum events being held across Waterloo Region on March 19, 20 and 21.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Let’s work together to build on existing resources and propel real
action</DIV>
<DIV>forward on climate change in our community.</DIV><SPAN class=HOEnZb><FONT
