    The Road to Earth Day: The History of the Environmental Movement in
    British Columbia

    Part of Super Natural British Columbia, Vancouverites inhabit a dense
    temperate rain forest, transformed into a modern cosmopolitan city.
    Earth Day celebrates annually the challenges of environmental issues in
    places like ours, where microchips and wood chips co-exist. UBC
    environmental historian, Philip Van Huizen, and historical geographer and
    B.C. Sierra Club and Greenpeace founder, Dr Terry Simmons, discuss what we
    can learn from scholarly and personal stories of the environmental
    movement in the rain forest and beyond.

    Monday April 18, 7:00pm.
    Alice MacKay Room, Lower Level.
    Central Library, 350 West Georgia St.
    Admission is free. Seating is Limited.

    For more information, contact David Brownstein at
    <dbrownst@interchange.ubc.ca>, or (604) 722-5366.

    Event co-sponsored by the Vancouver Public Library and NiCHE, the Network
    in Canadian History and Environment.
