We can absolutely reduce waste: with reusable cups and foodware!
Switching to reusables in Toronto for matches and fan events could prevent 625,000 disposables and 11,250 kg of waste, Vancouver's BC Place ALREADY switched to reusable cups in 2025

As expected the Premiere Ford has launched another attack on municipal climate action and green buildings. We need to raise our collective voices and tell him to protect people not profits. Take action here: https://loom.ly/7SCiu4U #onpoli
UPDATE: Last week, Premier Ford's government passed Bill 98, in yet another attempt to end the standard that's saved Torontonians millions in reduced energy costs for nearly twenty years
Thank you to those who reached out to MPPs, this fight isn't over. TEA will continue to monitor & share updates!
UPDATE: City Council has approved a much-needed expansion of the City's air conditioner program -and voted in favour of continuing work on a Maximum Heat Bylaw.

We want less trash & more fun this summer! The City's single-use reduction strategy is delayed again but our City can combat waste right now with:
- programs for events on public property to cut waste & adopt reuse
- lead by example & start on pilots at City events & venues

- 66% of what this incinerator burns should be recycled or composted not burned
- Ontario has very weak air pollution standards, this incinerator could go over current limits

BREAKING: #FIFA ’s last-minute flip flop to ban reusable water bottles will add to single-use garbage in Toronto, undermine local efforts from host cities to cut waste, and cost fans more money to buy disposable water bottles. See our statement below:

This will roll back almost 20 years of climate progress in Toronto, and force municipalities across Ontario to plan for a climate we don't have anymore. Speak up here: www.torontoenvironment.org/premier_ford... #ONpoli
