ACORN Canada’s Green Connections program held a brainstorming session at the Guildford Recreation Centre in mid-June. Members from ACORN Canada and volunteers with the Green Connection Program had a debrief session on how well the engagement on BC Hydro's Energy Savings Kits (ESK) went. The consensus among the group was that their neighbours that they talked to wanted the free Energy Savings Kits, and wanted to do something to protect the environment.
The conversation then moved into a fascinating discussion on how tenants in North Surrey can become environmentally engaged in their communities. Great ideas came about in the discussion. Ideas ranging from composting and community gardening to recycling organic matter into electricity where discussed; and now comes the challenge of turning ideas into action!
