Webinar on Pesticide Bylaws- Strategies for Success, Friday October 19 

In the past five years, Canadian municipalities have emerged internationally
as environmental and health leaders by passing local bylaws to reduce
pesticide use. An estimated 130 municipalities now have bylaws aimed at
restricting the use of lawn and garden pesticides. The City of Toronto
enacted a bylaw in 2004 and already reports a 35 per cent reduction in the
reported use of pesticides, increased use of natural alternatives and
positive changes in how lawn care companies and retailers are delivering
products and services.  Learn about how the pesticide bylaw trend began in
Canada and what tools the City of Toronto is using to achieve and sustain
success.  Friday October 19, 2007, 12 noon Eastern Time.

following: 

.        "Better than a typical conference session - more interactive, more
really interested folks."

specific webinar is on your topic of work, you can still generalize the
information. Makes social marketing concepts come alive." 

.        "It gave me a chance to explore community change processes for a
different set of behaviours than I usually get involved in."

*	"Valuable information and an easy-to-follow format."   

.        "Informative and fun ..you can  ask questions easily and get
answers as fast." 

.        "I plan to urge all my co-workers to participate in these
webinars."

.         "You can learn at your own desk for a fraction of what you'd pay
going to an out-of-town workshop or seminar. "

*	"I have used Skype-Out to phone into the webinar from South Africa
and once connected it works perfectly. It is ridiculously cheap - about 2
Euros for a 90 minute session. .... Your real life examples give the theory
life and aid deeper comprehension."
