Join the Sustainability Office for a tour of TMU's campus through a sustainability lens. Aspects of campus design and planning that will be explored include energy-efficient and low-carbon buildings, responsible waste management, urban food security initiatives, spaces to honour ongoing Indigenous reconciliation and low-impact development initiatives that foster the integration of local ecosystems with human activity.
The aim of the tour is to empower attendees with a fresh perspective on sustainable design and operations when passing through institutional and commercial spaces.
An eco-buddy plant will be given to all attendees after the treasure hunt on the third floor of the South Bond Building.
This is a green/single-use plastic-free event, so bring your own water bottle.
