Listen "Alberta's Agriculture Sector, Is Net Zero by 2050 Possible, and the Future of Olympic Plaza"

Episode Synopsis

It’s seeding season and that means there will be a lot more farm equipment on Alberta highways to watch out for. We catch up with Luree Williamson, CEO of “Ag For Life”, for some tips on how to stay safe while making your way around the province during this busy time.
 
Next, cutting down and addressing carbon dioxide emissions has been a top priority since the Kyoto agreement was signed in 1997. Well, we are now half-way between the Kyoto accord and the net-zero carbon goal of 2050. So just how realistic is the goal and are we on the right path? We get the thoughts of Kenneth Green from The Fraser Institute
 
Finally, Olympic Plaza played an important role during the 1988 Olympic games and now the city is planning to redevelop and transform the ‘iconic space’ as part of the Art’s Commons redevelopment. We get details on the project from Clare LePan, Calgary Municipal Land Corporation’s Vice President of Communications and Strategic Partnerships.
