Climate Cafe
April 4-6, 2008, Todd Lucier spent the weekend in Montreal with over 200 others to learn and be inspired by Al Gore to step into his shoes and deliver the powerful slide presentation An Inconvenient Truth to Canadian audiences.
Inspired about sustainability? Join us at Climate Cafe to start a project or arrange to have this powerful presentation delivered to your group by Todd, or one of the other 250 Canadian volunteer presenters who deliver the content on behalf of the Climate Project Canada. We also host sustainability retreats for executive teams and are developing new leadership and community enhancement events that focus on meeting the climate change challenge head-on. Climate Cafe is home to inspiring Climate Projects.

How did Todd get involved in the Climate Project Canada?
Like many people I was inspired and moved by watching the Academy Award Winning Video documentary featuring Al Gore. At the end of the video a Web site was shown on screen for those interested in the next step! I visited the Climate Project Web site where interested persons could request to be trained by Al Gore to deliver the slide show.
After watching the video, I spent weeks pacing the office and repeatedly going online to try to get into upcoming trainings, but Canadians were not being accepted. I saw Al Gore in person in Toronto last March and was moved to tears, realizing that it was up to us all to leave this world in a better condition than we found it . . . for the children of our children. Hasn’t every generation taken this challenge on for their children?
At the Edge, there are a number of green facility design elements, including the 22 solar panels that power our facility, an earth roof, recycled boardwalks, local and organic foods and of course a lush forest all around. At Northern Edge Algonquin, on the Edge of Canada’s Algonquin Park where we have been hosting guests for over a decade. Our commitment to sustainable, responsible tourism has always made healing the earth a priority.
Thankfully, the time came on April 4-6 to meet with Mr. Gore, and other inspiring presenters in Montreal to be initiated into the Climate Project family. I’m excited to be offering this training as a volunteer presenter. It’s an inspiring presentation that will raise your awareness and understanding of the problem, and inspire you to take action . . . one small act at a time.
It truly was a great experience Todd, I might even be giving the presentation this weekend to a youth conference if things work out. I am also looking forward to giving the presentation in school in the UK as well when I return back in May. I hope that you enjoy getting to share the presentation with everyone.
All the best.
