David Suzuki - The Legacy Lecture

via http://www.writersfestival.org/ (Get your festival membership now!)
"Based on the premise — 'If I had one last lecture to give, what would I say?' — David Suzuki: The Legacy Lecture will present a critical and candid exploration of a period of human history which includes his own life's journey — an era which has overlapped and converged with many of the most important social, scientific, cultural and political developments of the past seventy years. His focus also acknowledges the wisdom of his grandparents and moves forward through to the promise held in the birth of his new grandson.

Presented in partnership with the David Suzuki Foundation and the Faculty of Science and the School of Journalism and Communication at Carleton University."

Ma dernière conférence

Cool news!
I just saw my photo on the cover of David Suzuki's newly translated book (in French), "Ma dernière conférence: La Planète en héritage" Traduit par Marianne Champagne. The book is due out in November.

Got some unusual information for an upcoming event you might be interested in participating. It's a great cause, too. Otherwise I wouldn't be posting it here:

"On Saturday October 2nd 2010 from 11am to 1pm, The Children's Aid Society
(CAS) of Ottawa will be hosting an event at the Place D'Orleans mall where
you can Use Your Voice support the prevention of child abuse and neglect.

We are asking the Ottawa region to come out to break a (Guinness) world record by singing loud and singing proud on the radio. We need more than 250 people to sing on the radio to break this record. HOT 89.9 will be the host radio station with Rush from the Morning HOT Tub emceeing the event."
