Bill has always had an avid involvement in the horticulture industry’s professional development, education, and the environment.
Climate change is affecting our communities and homes and is changing the way we must design and build our urban landscapes.
Never have our living landscapes been so important to our collective health and well-being – thriving, contributing, working green spaces and places for people to gather and enjoy. It is with these green spaces that we have the power to change and contribute to the health and wellness of our cities and its people.
Bill will discuss the value and importance of green spaces in the urban areas in which most Canadians live, and introduce a new tool that individual property owners can use to measure their specific contribution, connecting plants and people for a greener, healthier urban climate.
