Kate Porter reports on the CBC analysis of over 400 municipalities across Ontario that revealed that many local officials such as mayors and councilors will run uncontested. That means they'll be acclaimed without any of the debate or discussion that is expected during an election campaign; Orillia has an official climate action plan. With the municipal election underway, residents and candidates came together to talk about what a new council can do to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. We'll hear ideas from yesterday's Net Zero conference from Stan Mathewson of Sustainable Orillia; It's a new school year with an old problem: a shortage of school bus drivers. Boards across the province are scrambling to fill the drivers' seats while finding alternative ways to get kids to schools. We hear from Diane Lloyd, of the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board; Beavers have been busy across North America building not just dams but ecosystems that could help fight climate change. We find out how from Huntsville author and Carleton University lecturer Michael Runtz.
