Sustainability Within a Generation

Tuesday, April 27, 2004 by Michelle

The David Suzuki Foundation is currently running ads as Canada gears up for an election. You see, Prime Minister Martin told them he agreed with their report, Sustainability Within a Generation. He said he supported the switch to a clean, low-polluting economy. Problem is, he hasn't done anything yet. So the David Suzuki Foundation is providing some encouragement to Prime Minister Martin and all of parliament. The provocative ads bring together the issue of global warming and politics using humour. Here's a link to their site regarding the ad on the Foundation website. Like the DSF, I hope politicians start to clean up their act!

The Tyee

I've been reading the media site, The Tyee, for a few months now. I find their articles to be balanced and clearly written, and it's great to read other people's comments on the various topics. Most importantly, The Tyee isn't owned by big right-wing corporations so I feel their articles are more well-rounded and not just about the politics of the owner(s). Interested? Check them out at www.thetyee.ca.
