SENS Event

Free Movie Night

SENS director Terry Dyck brings us the documentary “The 11th Hour” on the state of our natural environment, narrated by Leonardo Dicaprio. The movie provides information and solutions from over 50 scientists, environmentalists, and politicians on how to reverse or slow damage to our planet.

“An evening of solutions-based and exciting ideas”

Presenters:

Annual Seed & Plant Swap/Sale and Annual General Meeting (AGM)

The free seed and plant swap/sale started at 6:30 pm, a short AGM at 7:30 pm, followed by Brian McIsaac and Rebecca Kneen presenting: "Capping Growth in a Finite World – when is enough, enough?"

Waterway Stewardship

Learn about our local waterways and find out what equipment and monthly tests you can use on a waterway near you to monitor its cleanliness.

One of the presentations will confirm why it is crucial for communities to look after their water and to have a say about the agriculture allowed in the community. 

Even farms that are under the "Environmental Farm Plan" can cause severe long-term water pollution. Hear what has happened to a whole community in Spallumcheen due to a factory dairy, and find out how, or if, citizens can protect their own water.

SENS Director John Barling spoke on DIY Solar Energy Projects: covered swimming pool, domestic water heating, cabin photovoltaics, solar greenhouses, cooking in the sun, and food drying.
