Environmental Calendar of Events

Now it is possible to look up eco-friendly events in your area, sorted by location and date. Planetfriendly.org has released their Green and Environmental Conferences Calendar. Topics range from pollution to green homes to cars and pedestrians. If you have an event to promote, you can also submit it to be posted.

While the site is Canadian-based, more and more international events are being added. Planetfriendly’s Green Jobs in Canada board is busily trafficked with new worldwide job opportunities posted every day.

If you have never browsed through the site, set aside some time to go through its fabulous resources.

Students in culinary school are learning more about where food comes from, ecosystem sustainability and what it means to buy local. And also inspiring to see it’s happening all across Canada.

This culinary approach can be referred to as “Farm to Fork” – and that’s not just the tagline of the pork marketing boards any more.

For those not lucky enough to spend their days learning how to cook up local delicacies, there are internship, apprenticeship, and volunteer opportunities with organic farms available for the taking.

It’s never a bad idea to see where exactly your food comes from.
