About the Green Economy Gatherings
During the 2024 Energy and Climate Change Community Engagement Sessions, Citizens told us they wanted to learn how they could get involved in the green economy. To make this happen, our Environment and Climate Change team partnered with Iron & Earth to develop the Green Economy Gatherings.
These drop-in events will be held across Alberta, bringing Citizens together with industry leaders to learn more about this exciting field.
