On this day 39 yrs ago, Terry Fox began his Marathon of Hope in St. John’s, Newfoundland. He ran the equivalent of a full marathon every day for 143 days until his cancer spread and ended his life. A hero to Canadians he helped raise $ for research, cures & hope for us all

50% of Conservation Authorities provincial funding used to manage #flooding impacts was cut by the Province in yesterday's budget and will be felt immediately. Who picks this up?

So happy to have ended my undergraduate degree with a final presentation on such a pressing issue! The fight to spread awareness and eliminate single use plastics does not end here for me.

Thank you for the opportunity @IdeasCongress @shoshanahjacobs #plasticfreeUofG #UofG

In Canadian news: "NDP MP Nathan Cullen tabled the Zero-Waste Packaging Act in Parliament Wednesday, which is aimed at all consumer product packaging with the goal of reducing plastic waste and cutting the cost municipalities pay for landfills." https://t.co/tclvJFtmes

According to @globalnews ... 2.6 MILLION single use beverage cups go to the Vancouver landfill every WEEK! Let’s stop this madness, bring a reusable mug! #PlasticfreeUofG https://t.co/OW1djHMUxh

[Dr Sho Jacobs 🇨🇦 @shoshanahjacobs]

.@IdeasCongress students are asking questions about single use plastics from experts @uofg including @100milemark who knows everything about procurement.

This type of insight will be the key to coming up with a realistic plan for #plasticfreeUofG

[UofGSustainability @sustainableUofG]

Today the ICON course talked a lot about the circular economy system. This means that everything we use is recycled back into the system. In terms of food waste, we have a linear system that needs to be closed. If we can achieve this, we can achieve zero-waste ♻️ #circulareconomy

[Dr Sho Jacobs 🇨🇦 @shoshanahjacobs]

Our @IdeasCongress class is in the news!

Thanks to @GuelphToday for their interest in #plasticfreeUofG and the broader issues of plastic pollution. Effective solutions require a community approach and we're delighted that you've captured it!
