John Meyer
John Meyer is a semi-retired small business owner with a degree in economics. He has had a number of articles published in Canada’s major newspapers dealing with a range of topics from population, immigration and the environment to the failings of GDP based metrics for social policy formation. He has also presented a paper on Energy Currency at a conference of that name in Split, Croatia. Mr. Meyer is currently President of the NGO “Canadians for a Sustainable Society” and owner and designer at a tiny medium tech manufacturing company. He dabbles in solar electric and heating systems as well as electric bikes and has finished the major construction of a house which he expects to be (eventually) energy positive.
His book, “The Renewable Energy Transition, Realities for Canada and the World” was published in the late fall of 2019.
