Title - Book discussion
For our yearend keynote discussion, we will hear from Dr. Mark Jaccard on his book, The Citizen’s Guide to Climate Success. If you haven’t already, I would highly encourage reading his book. It has a lot of practical ideas on how to advance climate success in Canada.  He has generously made it open access and freely available (found here). He also runs an active blog at markjaccard.com and twitter handle @MarkJaccard that have great resources.
