Last week, myself and our Executive Director took place in “Peterborough Northumberland Day” at Queens Park. We were invited down by our MPP, Jeff Leal, as one of the many businesses to represent the Peterborough Riding.

We had a great opportunity to meet and greet with other businsses and non-profits from around the area and talk to several MPPs and Ministers, includuing the Minister of the Environment. He was very interested in our past education work with the city of Peterborough during the implementation of the city’s pesticide by-law. Ontario is about to embark on a similiar piece of legislation for the entire province.

This was great exposure for Green-Up and we were pleased to answer many questions about our organization, energy audits, the impending Green Energy Act and a host of other topics.
