  I take the stairs instead of the elevator.
  I also separate my garbage and recycling.
  Oh, and I bring my own reusable bags to the grocery store.

  I use the smallest pots and pans possible when cooking to reduce the amount of energy being used. (Smaller surface area=faster heat transfer) as well as a lid to cover and conserve the heat/energy being used.

  This summer we’re going change our existing windows to double insulated so that we can keep the cold/heat out and stay more comfortable while cutting back on energy consumption

  I write articles about how to live more environmentally so others can become informed.

  I’ve planted trees in Northern Ontario and helped to spread ‘green awareness’ through the Ontario Ranger Program!

About

Welcome to the official site of Humber's 10,000 Acts of Green, inspired by CBC's One Million Acts of Green, initiated by renowned Humber graduate, George Stroumboulopoulos.

Please log on using your Humber/GH accounts and submit your act of green.

An act of green can be anything from taking public transit more often to using a re-usable stainless steel water bottle. Every act helps! You can enter as many acts of green as you want!

If you have any questions or concerns, please email president@hsfweb.com.
