Sustainable development viewpoints
Inspirations
Inspirations: Conferences: Miami Conference preparation to UNCED The Miami Conference Action Agenda People: My Son (who wants me to heal the ozone layer); My parents- My Mom is an Architect- influenced me in community planning; Dad is a politician; David Brooks (Friends of the Earth.) Books: Ecology of Commerce, Paul Hawkins.

Concerns and encouragement

Concerns, The irresponsibility of transnational corporations-- the purpose of creating a corporation is to avoid responsibility/liability. We can't afford this evasion today. Environment Canada as a power-voice is not accurately representing the public's needs. Under the government's excuse of cost-cutting measures, NGO's are going broke, and are losing their abilities to influence government and the public.

Changes needed
Changes Needed: We need a great deal of support for the NGO community; public education ; advocacy role; we need to reprogram the Commission for Sustainable Development; Montreal Protocol and the International Framework on Climate Change. This change can not be carried out by the government as credibility will be lost. There must be a Greened budget by a greened government. As well, the government should subsidize programs for greened products and greened jobs.

Miscellaneous comments
Women have a particular interest in environment with our roles of taking care of the family. We need to reach a lot more women. There will be a world wide "Day of Action" , Sept 6, 1995 -- Women across the world linking women and the Environment.
