Let me introduce myself. My name is Elena Kaliberda and I am an Editor of this special edition of the ESLA newsletter. I am also the ESLA 1900 course student at the Carleton University. Students like me are the prime readers of this newsletter. One of the key objectives of the ESLA program is to improve the academic knowledge of the English language and get some practical communication skills. Surely, there are many opportunities available at the Carleton University to get involved and practise your communication skills, for example “English as a second language” conversation groups, workshops, seminars, and many others. There are always many various events happening at Carleton, including international conferences, seminars, theatre performances and much more. But it is also important to take advantage of many other opportunities that are available outside the University walls. It is important for so many different reasons. The key here is to receive a real life experience and an opportunity to integrate into every day’s life and learn to communicate in English with ease.

We believe that Ottawa residents are concerned about issues such as pollution, waste, and global warming, and that they want sustainable communities where clear air and water, public transit, renewable energy, recycling, and green space protection take priority. We are working with residents and community organizations to ensure that these concerns are heard at city hall. Ecology Ottawa is registered in Ontario, Canada as a not-for-profit organization, #1715290. our thanks We would like to thank the many individuals and organizations whose support has helped see Ecology Ottawa through a third year of success and progress in our collective efforts to make Ottawa a greener place: Our financial supporters: Community Foundation of Ottawa, Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (Career Focus, Canada Summer Jobs), Ontario Trillium Foundation, TD Friends of the Environment and our many individual donors. Our many volunteers, who gave 2,600 hours of their time in support of Ecology Ottawa public events and outreach, policy, research, publications and fundraising. 1 2009 AnnuAl RepoRt MessAge fRoM the ChAiR It seems with each passing year we are reaching new heights and this past year was no excep- tion. In 2009, Ecology Ottawa established itself as a force for the environment at City Hall and in the community.
