Full Title: ICLEI 2009 Special

Description:
MIA (Ch.15) New Urbanism (Ep.6) ICLEI 2009 Special (4 min)

In June 2009, hundreds of international delegates came to Edmonton to exchange ideas on how to build and manage sustainable cities. We share some of the stories, plus a preview of Season Four.

About Chapter 15: “New Urbanism”
Alberta’s cities are booming, thanks to our strong economy, but wasteful, sprawling growth is not good human habitat. Some Albertans are planning or redesigning sustainable communities. How are they doing this, and what are the results so far?

About Made-in-Alberta (MIA) Series
Energy, water and climate, these are hot topics for the 21st Century. With conventional fuel reserves running out, water tables running low, and global temperatures running high, 96 percent of Albertans now want new energy solutions. Since 2004, Barb Allard and her Made-in-Alberta team have been finding these solutions and bringing them to community television and the world-wide-web.
