Become an Environmental Citizen!

The challenge of learning about and protecting the environment may at first seem overwhelming. But there are simple things that everyone can do to benefit the planet, themselves and your municipality. Where do I Start? Begin with your daily life. Learn about the effects that your daily life has on the environment and find out how you can make some positive changes. Are there things you can do differently? Did You Know? Each Canadian uses, on average, 390 litres of water per day (about twice as much as the average European). About 11% of all CO2 emissions in Canada are from CARS (more than rail, marine and air transportation combined). Once waste gets covered over and packed down in a landfill it is exposed to very little oxygen, therefore decaying very slowly and releasing methane. Methane is considered a greenhouse gas and therefore contributes to global warming.

What To Do? Turn off the tap when brushing your teeth or washing your face. Fill a cup or basin instead. Install water saving devices such as low-flow showerheads and toilet dams to save yourself water and money! Walk, ride your bike, carpool or use public transit when possible. When using a car, shut off your engine during short stops (one minute of idling uses more fuel than re-starting your engine). Environmental Citizens Never Forget the R's... Reduce Next time you're shopping, ask yourself "Do I really need this? Can I borrow it from someone else? Will this break soon, or will I have to throw it away? Is it packaged with a lot of cardboard, plastic or paper? Can you buy a more durable item that won't have to be thrown out as quickly? Reuse before throwing away items, consider a way that you might be able to reuse it. Recycle everything you can: glass, aluminum cans, paper, and plastic. Buy items that come in recycled packages.
