Last year Sustainable Calgary Society teamed up with the Public Library to host the Sustainability Book Club. The response was so enthusiastic they decided to do it again this year. SC and the Library have been joined by Eco-Living to host the 2009-10 Sustainable Eco-Living Book Club. Through to May 2010 there will be a diverse selection of 8 books on offer.
The next event is this week, Wednesday, October 21, 6 PM at the Central Library. The library provides reserved copies of the book of the month at the main circulation desk – or pick up a copy at your local book store.
This week the featured book will be THE LIFE YOU CAN SAVE by Peter Singer. Singer is an acclaimed author who brings a global perspective and accessible style to his writing. In this latest book he tackles the question of how those of us in the richer countries can best live in ethical relationship with those in poorer countries. It promises to be a lively discussion. See you there!!
