Bow Valley Sustainability Hub - Taking the First Step

The Bow Valley Sustainability Hub is working to create a new way of living in the Bow Valley – one that integrates our economy, environment and society in ways that will ensure that the coming generations of residents enjoy a quality of life at least as fulfilling as the one we enjoy today. There is much being done, with much more to be done, and we encourage you to join with other citizens, businesses, and our municipal governments in starting the journey toward sustainability.

What Can You Do?

Lots. But for starters, you can learn more about sustainability and the actions you can take that will move us all towards a sustainable future.  As some first steps, you can:

• Attend one the Sustainability Hub’s speakers presentations or lunch-and-learn series
• Enroll in one of our education and action programs, including:
• Household EcoTeams
• Natural Step community group course
• Volunteer to support one of the Hub’s sustainability projects
• Read the monthly Sustainability Times in the Rocky Mountain Outlook
• Check out one of the Canmore Public Library’s great sustainability titles
• Follow the links on this website to The Natural Step to a Sustainable Canmore.

The future belongs to those who understand that doing more with less is compassionate, prosperous and enduring and thus more intelligent, even competitive.
