Geoff,
With respect to your point about the absence of examples from any of Canada’s 50 largest cities in these case studies, I agree, there are many examples do draw upon. As I followed a couple of web links connected to the Case Studies we were learning about, I ran across the following: http://www.vancouvereconomic.com/focus/green-economy/ & http://vancouver.ca/files/cov/bright-green-future.pdf
I wasn’t aware until discovering this information that Vancouver has been on this path toward being one of the Greenest Cities! Which made me wonder, WHY? How is it that this hasn’t been more publicly broadcast? Of course, earlier this week, Vancouver’s Greenest City aspirations was highlighted in connection to the meeting of a number of big city Mayor’s at the Vatican with Pope Francis. http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/mayors-meeting-at-vatican-seek-bold-climate-agreement-1.3161354
Hopefully, more & more of these Green Energy Action stories are shared, for the lessons learnered and the successes to celebrate!
