Canadian companies retool for pandemic, why not climate change?


Here's an opinion piece that came out this weekend on the CBC-Manitoba website.
Pandemic proves companies can change in an emergency-so what about that climate crisis?
True confessions:  I actually wrote this at the end of February.  I didn't write this in response to the pandemic.  However, the news was changing so fast at that time, nobody had room to run it.  I was supposed to check back in at the end of March. Well, we all know what happened by then...I was at home, home schooling and so was everyone else.  I forgot all about this piece.

I reread it at the beginning of May...and changed about three sentences. (that's about all I have time for, right now!)  It seemed more likely than ever that Canadians could make fast change if the political will was strong enough...so I resubmitted and it went live this morning.

A gift for 2020


This piece ran on the CBC-Manitoba website this morning.  I am proud of it--and hope it could come true.
A gift for 2020: Earth for our great-grandchildren
We're having lots of fun at our house, Hanukah started and we are playing, resting, and celebrating.  Hope you are, too!
