Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities
Hello, I am hoping for a collaborative brainstorm. I am looking for examples (hopefully local) of individuals who have been successful working in or owning their own environmentally sustainable business. I deeply want to work for sustainable/earth-friendly organizations but also need financial stability. I am looking for inspiration, stories, career ideas, role models, and/or mentors. Is there anyone you can think of?
