ICLEI stands for "International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives". Man, that is a really bad name for an organization. It's tagline explains things a bit better: "Local Governments for Sustainability".
So this big conference is coming to Edmonton next summer. There will be more than 500 delegates from all over the world trading information about how their "locality" (city, county, barangay) can become more environmentally sustainable.
Preparations are in the early stages right now. I saw an opportunity to meet some amazing new green Edmontonians, so I volunteered to be on the ICLEI Green Committee - it's our job to green the conference. I'll post more on how we plan to do that later.
Are you interested in helping Edmonton throw an awesome ICLEI conference? Email me through the "Contact Us" link on the left, and I will get you connected.
