Last month on June 19th and 20th, Planet Forward participated in the 2nd Annual Eco-Savvy Festival at Mel Lastman Square, in the heart of North York.  The Festival is a free event for the public, put on by Enlightened Events, to help consumers “screen through all the green” marketing and find responsibly made products and services.

Planet Forward was thrilled to participate as an Eco Merchant showcasing its variety of quality, eco-friendly products to consumers looking to make environmentally and socially conscious purchases.  Main sellers were the Planet Forward Sustainable Stainless Steel Bottle, the neoprene lunch bag, the Basket-On-The-Go and the MIY Green Cleaning Kit.   Also, it appeared as though the heat on Friday drove up the demand for the short-sleeved organic t-shirts, while consumers seeking last minute Father’s Day gifts snatched up the organic cotton Baseball Caps.

A Greener Way Of Raising Funds

school-fundraiser-colorEco friendly fundraising sustains or enhances the character of a school/committee/organization – its environment, culture aesthetics, heritage and the well being of its residents through environmentally responsible means.

Through hands-on participation in the sale and promotion of our eco-gear, the rewards of eco friendly fundraising can be discovered.  The Planet Forward Students Program encourages student activities that advance environmental responsibility and the sustainability of the planet.  Planet Forward Students is a program that addresses those very issues through eco friendly fundraising.  It’s all about educating, engaging and empowering fundraisers to set a green example in their communities.  It’s time that more institutions align their eco-values with eco friendly fundraising initiatives through the sale of planet conscious, sustainable products.

Central Okanagan Becomes 50th Municipality In Canada To Enforce Restrictions

ban-bottled-waterCanadian municipalities have already started to take action to promote sustainable water choices and avoid bottled water.  On May 28, 2009, the Polaris Institute reported that Central Okanagan became the 50th municipality in Canada to execute restrictions on bottled water.

In Victoria on March 7, 2009, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) passed a resolution to “phase out the sale and purchase of bottled water at their own facilities where appropriate and where potable water is available.”
