@Bradyfaught @CAHiggins Yes I did see it! Very cool. We had almost 50% of our total units attend our virtual session last night and then visit the demo unit. Lots of great questions and interest to help support our upcoming AGM resolution.

Making #retrofits happen at a strata takes heavy lifting by resident volunteers to make it happen. Thanks to @CAHiggins @Bradyfaught for lending the City’s demo heat pump for our info session tonight!

I’m proud of Max & his family , their determination brought them here today bringing some closure to BMO. The Heiltsuk Nation has enjoyed a positive working relationship with ⁦⁦@Vancity⁩ for some time. Creating a new memory with a blanket ceremony this afternoon.

When something emits "tonnes of CO2 emissions," it's easy to forget this is literally METRIC TONS of gas.

How about: a single gas car produces 1.5 African elephants worth of pollution in a year. Or enough CO2 to completely fill an apartment building.

Great day to sit down w/ @ShaunLoney’s new book “The Beautiful Bailout”. His first book is a staple on my shelf and one I always recommend. Thus far this one is just as engaging, informative and helpful!!

On this day of hyper consumerism, why not jump in the opposite direction. Try out a lifestyle - even if just for a few months - that's compatible with a thriving planet. Loving this challenge #taketheJUMPnow - check it out, try it out - jump. I'm in. https://t.co/o3rJFsoKiP

Hey @ubcresidence @ubc you know what’s not cool - picking up a pile of balloons with your name on them from the middle of Howe Sound! Time for campus to go plastic free!
