Comments from our guests and members

Members and guests attending our weekly meetings are very important to us. Based on your comments we are able to produce many more educational, inspiring, and entertaining weekly meetings.

Following are some of the comments we have received. Would you please send us your comments?   

March 5. Love the land acknowledgment video. Jan Arden is always a favourite.
-- Sharon Blaker, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

How Biochar Removes CO2 from the Air – and helps farmers thrive. What I enjoyed was the fact I had no idea what Biochar is and what it does. It is a kind of charcoal that removes CO2 from the atmosphere, helping yield healthy crops and even producing abundant renewable energy in the form of electricity as it's made. This is especially valuable for farmers in areas that are starting to be affected by climate change and dependent on small crops to be able to feed their families. This is a very cool topic and to me how Mother Nature has provided ways in which we can solve some of problems if we choose to do so.
-- Michael Thomas, Rotary Club of Stony Plain, District 5370

March 12. We accept the dishwashing machine as a normal part of our life not knowing that it took the determination of a woman to invent it. Josephine Cochran was quite a remarkable woman inventing the dishwashing machine and manufacturing it and selling it at a time when women in the U.S. did not even have the right to vote.-- 
-- David Werrett, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

March 15. Denmark's commitments to change are commendable but I don't understand why their goal date is 2050. Changes need to be made much sooner if we are to experience any recovery in the environment.
-- Vicki Horsfield, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

March 20. The unexpected underwater plan fighting climate change. I enjoyed this meeting a lot.
- Doug Dyer, E-Club of Canada One, District 5370

 How can you help Ukraine?

In response to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, the Rotary Foundation has made available the Disaster Response Fund as the main avenue for contributions.

All donations made online at the Disaster Response Fund – My Rotary will have been received by April 3. 

Grant applications to take advantage of the funds will be available now through June 30, 2022. This will be the main avenue for Rotary Foundation Support, but Rotary and Rotaract Clubs are also encouraged to create their own responses to the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine.

In addition to the support provided through the Disaster Response Fund, The Rotary Foundation is coordinating with partners and regional leaders, exploring effective solutions to the increased humanitarian needs. You will find a comprehensive list of projects at this link, with the contact details and website.

Thank you for all that you do to promote peace.
