Welcome back to another weekend morning of sharing and discussions on how to create a more sustainable world, a world that we could leave liveable for future generations, what choices we could make as indviduals and communities to enable that.
We have two amazing individuals who have made lasting impact on the City and its residents and communities, gracing this event.
