If Montreal is to become a sustainable city, there’s some serious work to do. How do we get there?
On Friday, June 19th at Collège Notre-Dame auditorium (3791 Queen Mary), from 6 to 8:30 p.m, Richard Bergeron will tackle these questions. Bergeron is the city’s anti-car, pro-environment political party leader (and urban planner).
He’ll also be joined by two other locals, Dimitri Roussopoulos, publisher and founder of the Urban Ecology Centre and author of several books, including the forthcoming The Rise of Cities, and Dr. Pierre Gauthier, professor in geography and urbanism at Concordia University and author and editor of the recently published Montreal at the Crossroads: Superhighways, the Turcot and the Environment.
$20 at the Door, but includes refreshments.
3791 Queen Mary, near Cote-des-Neiges Metro.

Mark, I think that the blogs posted hear are ones that many citizens of Montreal would love to read about, either in a print or an online publication. The environment is an important thing to shine light upon, especially in this day and age. the {warehouse} magazine, intends to do just that, by focusing not only on the environment but on other topics that are in dire need of an increase in social awareness. The magazine is always looking for inspiring writers just like you and being one of the magazine’s communications associates, I invite you to browse through their website. I suggest looking over their WORLD ENVIRONMENT pieces in their FLASH POINT {world affairs} section. If you are at all interested in contributing to the magazine, do not hesitate to contact me, Kevin, at kpacheco@stockthewarehouse.com and you can always access the website at http://www.thewarehousemagazine.com . Hope to hear from you soon.
