About “Eco-Action Heroes”
“Eco-Action Heroes” are Albertans who are pushing the green envelope in their schools, workplaces, organizations and out and about in our society. These one-minute profiles introduce us to people of relentless enthusiasm and faith, who have given us the opportunities we now have to create a sustainable society.

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.
