He will also cover work by international organizations to define scenarios and practical tools towards creating more robust responses in support of survival.   Ted will then review some global approaches\, such as those underway with Small Island Developing States and with tourism in coastal zones and fragile ecosystems. \nThe presentation will end with a brief discussion of what it may mean for individual Canadians and their communities.  Even if we get it right\, the transition is unlikely to be smooth and it does not hurt to be prepared. \nEdward W.
