Consume This - Buying That Matters: A Guide for Youth

The Canadian Centre for Pollution Prevention has just published a guide for youth empowering them to make simple everyday choices to protect the environment.

“Consume This – Buying That Matters” has been met with an overwhelming response. In the first 48 hours, over 1000 copies were downloaded from the website, over 5,000 in the first six days.

You can order your full colour EcoLogo certified print copy online at www.c2p2online.com/youth or by calling 1-800-667-9790.

We have had to put a small price tag on the booklet ($6 + tax and postage) to help us cover printing costs. However you can continue to access the online electronic version for free. Read More
