OPPORTUNITIES TO TAKE ACTION

USE YOUR RIGHTS UNDER OUR PROVINCIAL ENVIRONMENTAL BILL OF RIGHTS

Did you know that Ontario has an Environmental Bill of Rights?   Environment Hamilton regularly comments on postings on the provincial Environmental Bill of Rights Registry - and we encourage other community members to do the same!  

KEEP CHECKING HERE FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO COMMENT ON ENVIRONMENTALLY SIGNIFICANT PROVINCIAL ISSUES!

  • tours of eco-friendly buildings or local farms,
  • green space clean-ups and planting events,
  • biking or walking air quality audits,
  • Hamilton industrial pollution crawls, and
  • extreme weather resiliency workshops.
