Supporting businesses and organizations built on the principles of environmental responsibility will inspire change for the better on a global scale. These roots for change begin at the local level—in the home, the community, and ecosystem.
It does not matter whether one is creating an eco-friendly backyard pool or streamlining a small business, every modification has value and contributes to the collective sustainability efforts. At the same time, one can feel a sense of pride in their work knowing they are making a difference, while saving money, time, and resources.
With a portion of Canada’s economy being resource-based, it is vital to make sustainability a priority and to set an example for other nations on how to tackle the challenges of environmental damage and make systematic changes. By doing so, people will be healthier and more productive, which will further encourage the creation of cutting-edge tools and technology.
