Did you Know?
In Canada and around the world, our demand for energy (especially for fossil fuels) exceeds what the planet can sustainably provide. Every new thing that is made has an environmental footprint. By making better decisions about what food, clothing and household necessities we purchase, each of us can save thousands of litres of water and oil, and meaningfully reduce our personal and collective impact on the environment.
