Sustaining Our World 2013


The Britannia Green Team is hosting a Sustaining Our World event to wrap up Waste Reduction Week with a Sustainability Fair, a Race to Zero Waste, and a film screening on Sunday October 27th.

For the Sustainability Fair in Gym D from 12-5pm, we have invited people and organizations working towards sustainable solutions to come and share their efforts for our community, so come on down and see all the good happening in our world already!

Join us for hands on activities including a recycling craft zone, marimba music fun and workshops with the Urban Weavers and the Strathcona Green Zone.

If you and your friends or family enjoy a fun challenge, be sure to sign up for the 2nd Annual Britannia Race to Zero Waste which will have teams finding clues and working through activities together as they explore positive green initiatives in our neighbourhood!

We'll end the day with a screening of the movie Clean Bin Project from 7-9pm. This film follows the ultimate zero waste challenge this community has ever seen and is bound to inspire you!

Stay tuned for more details on the event which we will post here as we go, as well as registration information for the race, and we hope to see you there! :)

Please contact Kathy Whittam if you have any questions or feedback for this event at kathy.whittam@vancouver.ca
