Itinerary for 10/10/10 Ottawa

On 10/10/10 from 2:00 to 5:00pm, meet us at the First United Church at 347 Richmond Road:
  • Check out exhibits prepared by local groups. Learn to calculate your carbon footprint, find your MP, or find resources about grants available to Canadians who are improving their home's energy efficiency.
  • You can make a pledge to reduce your carbon footprint so you can earn one of 350 black walnut tree saplings, to be distributed in Spring 2011. 
  • We'll be running fun activities, and we're collaborating with the community to create a model vision of a sustainable Ottawa out of recycled materials.
  • We'll also be offering hot coffee for a cool Fall day.
  • Don't forget to check out some of the presentations happening throughout the afternoon!
