"If you were disheartened by the recent City Council decision to not ban the use of pesticides and herbicides, here is some encouraging, healthy news from City Hall.

Today, Ald. Joe Ceci and Ald. Bob Hawkesworth will bring forward a motion to create a food policy for Calgary. The Aldermen are proposing that the city look at models that have been successful in other cities, and develop a policy for Calgary to foster a healthier community and to promote more locally grown, sustainable food."

Considering this year's low point in values, the growing mistrust of business, and the decline of brand loyalty, we have no choice but to rethink corporate responsibility and discover new ways to get past greenwashing and lip service to truly put values on par with profits. The costs of not doing better at doing good are too high."
