Municipalities across Canada are invited to partner with Earth Day Canada in bringing Canada’s most comprehensive resource conservation initiative to households in your community.
|
Earth Day Canada’s EcoAction Teams Program is the program of choice for municipalities striving to build sustainable communities, reduce local greenhouse gas emissions, and save costs on municipal water use and waste management. The program is supported by a comprehensive, self-administered online savings calculator.
Benefits to participating municipalities include:
-
Engaging individuals, families and communities in integrated sustainable community planning initiatives
-
Policy development through the identification of needs and service deficiencies
-
Improving operational services
-
Capturing, calculating and aggregating GHG emission, water, energy and waste reductions by geographic region (e.g., postal code) and by group affiliation
-
Using quantified local conservation data to support eligibility for funds
-
Enhance community outreach and education with the use of the “Earth Day” brand
