Naturally Resourceful: Green growth in the new economy

Can we harness technology to ensure necessary natural resource activities are as safe and beneficial as possible? Judging by the turnout at the Nov. 29 Naturally Resourceful event in Vancouver hosted by Resource Works, the answer is yes.

Keynote speaker CJ Ritchie, assistant deputy minister from BC’s Ministry of Jobs, Trade and Technology, explained how the government is approaching natural resource technology. (Check out this presentation that she gave to our group, it has some fascinating information linking natural resources and innovation.)
