[GREN-Exec] 100 Debates for the Environment Sept 8 -English debates scheduled

[Stephanie Sobek-Swant]

Hi you all,

I'm also in the Kitchener-Conestoga riding - I'm officially going on vacation for a couple of weeks but could help organizing in my spare time. I will speak to Laura tomorrow who is organizing the Cambridge event at rare - perhaps we can piggyback on the model and copy it/ co-promote it for our riding. I'm not sure if both Reep and rare have a Zoom account with the webinar feature - I know rare does. If yes, we could probably hold parallel events on Zoom fairly easily assuming one of us can manage the tech side of it.

Take care,

Stephanie

Hi Susan,

Excellent idea.  We need to ensure that climate change and our environment is front and centre in this election.  I have not heard of anything planned yet but I am currently out of town and a bit out of the loop.

I too am in the Kitchener-Conestoga riding and can try to help however possible despite already being pretty swamped.

I like the simplicity/safety of a virtual format.  Let’s share any ideas and see what we can come up with as a community.

Cheers,
Kevin.

They probably have to be on Zoom, which might make it easier to organize. I'm prepared to help with one for my riding of Kitchener-Conestoga. Who's up for this?
