Metro Vancouver's next Sustainability Community Breakfast will take place Wednesday, July 8th, 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. at British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) downtown Vancouver campus at 555 Seymour Street, Vancouver.

Join them to learn how the carbon offset portfolio for the Games will work and opportunities for involvement.

VANOC will also provide an update on their sustainability planning for the Winter Games and launch the new Vancouver 2010 Sustainability Journey video.
