National Sweater Day

One third of climate change emissions could be eradicated by energy conservation and efficiency. If every Canadian turned down their thermostat by two degrees in the winter, 2.2 megatonnes of carbon dioxide per year could be saved a year – the equivalent of taking about 350,000 cars off of the road!

National Sweater Day, approaching its third year, calls on Canadians to turn down the heat wherever they are on February 9 and demonstrate that they’ve taken action by sporting a sweater.

The campaign is a fun, money-saving, easy way to get involved in energy conservation dialogue and action. Wearing a sweater is a symbolic gesture to show support for decision makers to make structural changes in Canada’s energy landscape. We all want to be connected to a bigger conversation about the solutions to climate change, and a huge part of that is how we use energy.

Join us on February 9 and keep warm while keeping the planet cool.

Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup

The 18th annual Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup was another hugely successful year! Thank you to the 56,000+ people who came out to help 1665 shorelines across the country this year. The program is proud to be Canada’s largest community based shoreline cleanup, providing Canadians with a great way to join with friends, family, colleagues, and the community to make a positive difference on the environment.
