Water Conservation Tips, Workplace Burnout, and Wordfest

The ‘stats’ are in and water usage in the city has been down over the past few days, but we’ve got a long way to go! With a timeline of 3-5 weeks to complete repairs on the ‘feeder main’, we still need to be vigilant. We catch up with Tricia Stadnyk, Professor of Hydrology at the University of Calgary, for some water saving tips to help keep us on track as we move into Summer.   Next, are you feeling ‘burned out’? Well, if you do, you’re not alone. A new study has found the incidence of “burnout” is high for working Canadians. In fact, it impacts over 50% of employees. We get a complete breakdown for the research from Deborah Lovich, Managing Director and Senior Parner at the “Boston Consulting Group”.   Finally, put the phone down, pick up a book and show the world what you’re reading! There’s big, free event happening next week and every Calgarian is encouraged to take part. We get the details on the “Reading In The Wild” event from Shelley Youngblut, CEO & Creative Ringleader of “Wordfest”.
