Carbon capture reform. This is a groundbreaking research story.

Writer: Ian Turner (ianturner88@gmail.com)

An article about the Speakeasy program @ UBC. Speakeasy provides information, peer counseling, and crisis support to the UBC students and community.

Location and contact info is here: http://www.amsubc.ca/index.php/services/category/speakeasy

Would be EASY and SIMPLE to get a photo of the outside (with the logo in the shot), but if you want to go further, say hi to someone inside and ask if you can get a wicked portrait shot with the speakeasy centre in the background :)
