Wrap It Up!
You’ve had a few weeks to consider some different perspectives on sustainability. Any a-ha moments? An interest in doing things differently? Quest for more information in an area you’re especially passionate about? Shift I behaviour…?
This week’s tasks are pretty gentle, but do demand a little action intended to push a little reflection!
We’re a bit late to the game for this week’s activities! Deadline for this week’s tasks is Sunday, March 7, 2021.

Play - Speaking of wrapping up, how is your recycling savvy? Reducing is best, but recycling whenever/wherever is most awesome. The City of Surrey’s recycling guidelines are similar to Nanaimo’s and they have a cute game to try out. Play the waste-sorting game, enter your name on the certificate, save it, and email a copy to Sustainability@viu.ca
