Green Patrol

The City of Côte Saint-Luc is participating for the first time this summer in the Green Patrol Program, managed by the Conseil regional de l’environnement de Montréal. With the help of a federal subsidy, the city has hired two summer students to distribute information about environmental issues of importance in Côte Saint-Luc and across the island. You can recognize our two green patrollers, Jenny Cho and Heidi Monk, by their bright green t-shirts! Feel free to ask them questions about recycling, hazardous waste collection, and other environmental programs in Côte Saint-Luc.

The CSL Green Patrol is working on the following campaigns in 2007:

• Expanding recycling to multi-family dwellings
• Increasing participation in the blue box recycling program
• Promoting the proper disposal of hazardous household waste (HHW)
• Reducing unnecessary vehicle idling
• Encouraging composting and green gardening practices
• Organizing presentations with summer camps and community groups

Here’s where you can find Heidi and Jenny this week:
