Cannexus 2016 - Ottawa, Ontario - January 24-26
  1. Green Career Development     SPEAKER: Norman Amundson                               Dr. Peter Plant, Copenhangen Denmark coined the term "green career development".  Identify passions; how are you intelligent; connect with likeminded people; support risk-taking, creativity, flexibility.  Assess your practice and how you are green - recycle, local; have awareness of impact - ethically and economically.  To me we still need to go further and reduce consumption in our lifestyles - but this would be bad for financial economics and social economics - image.
