It also happens because of social isolation: we c an’t find people down the street who could use something we have no further use for.\n \nThe City has asked the community to come up with specific  Neighbourhood Zero Waste \"Assets\" that could encourage exchanges rather than discards, for instance, foster repair and stew ardship rather than more consumption... reduce our waste and build mo re resilient, connected communities at the same time.\n \nIn the cour se of building neighbourhood capacity in one area, we build it in all areas and become a resilient Green City with deep roots. Ultimately, t his will be given expression in new land-use and zoning policies that support a livable city. Be a part of this conversation on March 2nd. The City needs our insights and organizational capacity. \n \n \n To confirm attendance, please contact:Olive Dempseyolive.dempsey@vanco uver.ca 604-873-7264.RSVP by February 25, 2011 A light dinner will b e provided at the event \n\nFor more information visit http://village vancouver.org/events/zero-waste-vancouvervillage DTSTART:20110303T023000Z DTEND:20110303T043000Z CATEGORIES:yaletown, city, consultation, waste, carbon, ecology LOCATION:Roundhouse Community Arts & Recreation Centre WEBSITE:http://www.talkgreenvancouver.ca/events URL:http://www.talkgreenvancouver.ca/events CONTACT:To confirm attendance: Olive Dempsey 604-873-7264 olive.dempse y@vancouver.ca ORGANIZER:Helen Spiegelman of Zero Waste Vancouver, the Greenest City Initiative, and Vilage Vancouver ATTACH;FMTTYPE="image/jpeg":http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/ file/get/2051049520?profile=original ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Warren W alker":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/WarrenWalker ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Randy Ch atterjee":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/RandyChatterjee ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Ross Mos ter":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/RossMoster ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="myna lee johnstone":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/mynaleejohnstone ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN=Christine :http://villagevancouver.org/profile/Christine ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Queenly Lee":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/QueenlyNgaYiuLee ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Village Vancouver":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/VillageVancouver ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Karen H" :http://villagevancouver.org/profile/KarenHertz ATTENDEE;ROLE=REQ-PARTICIPANT;PARTSTAT=ACCEPTED;RSVP=TRUE;CN="Leta Gol dwynn":http://villagevancouver.org/profile/LetaGoldwynn END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
