Environment and the 2015 Federal Election: How to Talk About It

A\J was thrilled to host a roundtable discussion at the Environmental Studies Association of Canada’s 2015 conference (ESAC 2015), held at Congress 2015 in June.

Here’s what some of the speakers had to say after a thoughtful and insightful discussion.
