The CTF Green Street program has partnered with CBC Television and the program, “The Hour” on a campaign to amass One Million Acts of Green (OMAoG) this school year.

CBC has sent out the following comments, “the idea behind the campaign is that one small act can make a big difference. It’s not about overhauling your life; it’s about one act from each individual amassing to a million. You can switch to compact fluorescent light bulbs, you can start a recycling program, or you can buy a hybrid car. But whatever you do, you have to register your act on the website - www.onemillionactsofgreen.com. The highly interactive website will be the hub of the campaign, allowing users to log their acts, view content, post photos and videos, create groups, and challenge others to act.

CBC and “The Hour” are challenging everyone to get involved. From CBC TV and Radio, to schools and universities, communities and cities, politicians, athletes, and even celebrities! One Million Acts of Green is backed by some big environmental partners, including: Clean Air Foundation, The David Suzuki Foundation, Earth Day Canada, Environmental Defence, Evergreen, GreenNexxus, Green Street (managed by the Canadian Teachers’ Federation), and The Climate Project - Canada. But most importantly, we need YOU to register your act. It’s one million acts of green, one act at a time.”

This is an opportunity for us all to be in the forefront on a major initiative. Get involved now by registering your environmental act at www.onemillionactsofgreen.com!
