So that&#8217;s one of the things that the Innovation System would  like to support. &nbsp;And hopefully that would lead to a &quot;restoration  economy&quot; &nbsp;in Alberta where we&#8217;re focused more on making sure that we&#8217;re  putting back what we&#8217;re taking out of the environment and safeguarding  our resources for future generations. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dr Marian Weber says this integrated platform will provide more transparency in land use decision-making.<br \/><span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><br \/>Thanks today to &nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">ALBERTA INNOVATES<\/p>\n<p>Learn more at Innovation Anthology.com <\/span><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;M CHERYL CROUCHER<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Guest<\/h2>\n<h3> , <\/h3>\n<h4>, , , , <\/h4>\n<h2>Sponsor<\/h2>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\">Alberta Innovates Technology Futures<\/a><\/h3>\n<p>Alberta Innovates launched its consolidation on November 1, 2016<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et-waypoint et_pb_image et_pb_animation_off et_pb_image_5 et_always_center_on_mobile et_pb_image_sticky et-animated\"> \t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/albertainnovates.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/tech_futures_v2_icon.png\" \/> \t\t\t \t\t\t<\/div>\n<p><strong>780-450-5111<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.albertatechfutures.ca\/\">albertatechfutures.ca<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>250 Karl Clark Road,<br \/>Edmonton, Alberta, Canada<br \/>T6N 1E4<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/innovationanthology.com\/uploads\/AI_Tech_RGB_smallForWeb.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Program Date:<\/strong>\u00a02016-05-19<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Developing an integrated platform to support an Ecosystem Services Clearinghouse and Exchange is complex but it can be done, says AITF economist Dr. Marian Weber<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"> (Alberta Innovates)<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63,46,3,27],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2018","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-alberta-innovates-technology-futures","category-reclamation","category-wildlife","category-women-in-science","has-post-title","has-post-date","has-post-category","has-post-tag","has-post-comment","has-post-author",""],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2018"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5460,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018\/revisions\/5460"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2018"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2018"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.innovationanthology.com\/import\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2018"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
