Keen Engineering celebrates Kyoto

Feb 17, 2005

By Catherine Barr

 

A good-for-the-environment gala of sorts took place last week at the Pan Pacific Atrium as North Van's Keen Engineering decided to acknowledge Canada's committment to the Kyoto Protocol which officially came into effect on Feb. 16. Designed in 1997 as a world-wide approach to cut greehouse gases and emissions, there is still some substantial work to be done and encouraging Canadian leaders and businesses to stay committed was what this night was all about.

Vancouver's best events and celebrity functions are all archived here. Vancouver pubs, clubs, nightclubs, gala events and fundraisers are included. Thanks for viewing.

Due to server capacity, you will not be able to access or click through to the larger photographs. With over 250,000 unique visits each month, our site would quickly exceed the amount of memory needed.

If you would like to receive a copy of a photograph, then please send an email and enclose the details of the event, the date, the name, the photo number and the names of the people in the photograph. Also, for security reasons, I prefer not to email copies of pictures to anyone other than the people who are actually in the photo. Thanks.
