Book Description
Canadian thought leaders who participated in this CEGN exercise identified a number of opportunities associated with the green economy. However, they were not blind to the many obstacles that must be overcome before the envisioned benefits can be delivered. They saw tremendous potential for green job creation, but also for long-term economic growth as a result of enhanced productivity and global competiveness. They appreciated that the greening of Canada's economy would mean more sustainable management of the country's natural resources and a cleaner, healthier environment for generations of future Canadians. Canada would also be seen as doing its role to stabilize human-caused climate change. The effort - the process of greening the economy - would also bring healthy returns on investment to the financial community. The local nature of many green initiatives would bring the country's communities and First Nations groups closer together by encouraging greater collaboration and partnering at the local level.

Book Description
Canada's future economy will be a "green" economy. The promise of such an economy, in the environmental and economic benefits it will create is too powerful, and too positive, to ignore. But getting there will require a transformation in almost every aspect of our economic lives, away from activities that generate environmental degradation to those that preserve and sustain the natural systems upon which our societies are based. A great deal of work lies ahead in continuing to make the case for a green economy, and in finding, developing, and promoting the solutions that will make the transformation to a green economy a reality. These solutions, big and small, will be found in our governments, in our businesses, and in our civil society. Canada's philanthropic community and its partners are playing, and will continue to play, an important role in this transformation.

Book Description
Global warming is perhaps the greatest challenge facing the twenty-first century. Environmental polices on the one hand, and economic and labour market polices on the other, often exist in separate silos creating a dilemma that Work in a Warming World confronts. The world of work - goods, services, and resources - produces most of the greenhouse gases created by human activity. In engaging essays, contributors demonstrate how the world of work and the labour movement need to become involved in the struggle to slow global warming, and the ways in which environmental and economic policies need to be linked dynamically in order to effect positive change. Addressing the dichotomy of competing public policies in a Canadian context, Work in a Warming World presents ways of creating an effective response to global warming and key building blocks toward a national climate strategy.
