Our climate and landscapes are undoubtedly some of our city’s great strengths and we should use them as wisely as we would any other asset. The Sustainability Action Team strives to encourage our community to live, work and play in a way that protects the long-term health of our environment.

The team’s initiatives look broadly at the issue of sustainability, including the sustainability of our economy and our health -- both of which have environmental implications. Project areas have included: public transit, active transportation, local business, local food, fair trade, HRM’s Regional Plan, and HRM’s Environment and Sustainability Standing Committee.

As a team, we voice the perspectives of the next generation, build awareness, and provide our members with tools and resources to live more sustainably. With a more engaged population than ever, we create forums for improvement and education so we can continue to work toward everyday solutions and citywide change.

Connect with us on our Facebook page which is accessible to anyone with an email account. It’s a great place to share ideas and communicate, while limiting the number of emails in your inbox.
