A Quick Update

Hey everyone! Just a quick update on what we have been up to. Right now, we have been primarily focusing on the big Renewable Energy event that we will be having. We'll be working in conjunction with Kwantlen Fossil Free with myself and Inderpal taking the reigns for this project. The event will be from March 19th and 20th, and we will be having workshops, a panel, as well as a keynote speaker (names will be announced shortly).

We'll also be starting to interview some of the companies and people that will be a part of this event. That will happen shortly, and the articles will be posted on this blog. Here are some links to follow while leading up to the event.
