At Greenwin, we believe that strong communities grow from everyday actions rooted in care. As part of Living Greenwin—our resident engagement program focused on connection, well-being, and sustainability—we’re proud to support Earth Day by encouraging mindful choices that protect our planet and strengthen our communities.

Earth Day, celebrated every April 22, is a global reminder that the health of our environment starts with each of us. Whether it’s cutting back on waste or making more eco-conscious choices, we all have a role to play in creating a greener future.

Here are a few simple ways to get involved:

  • Reduce single-use plastics – Swap plastic bags, bottles, and straws for reusable alternatives
  • Recycle right by sorting your waste properly—It's one of the easiest ways to reduce landfill and protect the planet. To learn more about proper waste disposal and reduction with resources in 14 languages, visit https://green.win/SuiteTips
  • Walk or bike instead of driving – Reduce your carbon footprint by choosing active transportation when possible
  • Join a local cleanup – If you see litter around your community, take a few minutes to pick it up and dispose of it properly
  • Support eco-friendly brands – Opt for sustainable products that prioritize environmental responsibility – don’t forget to choose Canadian brands!
  • Get involved with Greenwin! – In April and May we are hosting over 20 resident Earth Day events – keep an eye out for what’s happening at your building! Plus, all residents are invited to upcycle to #winwithgreenwin (contest details below)

These small changes, when adopted by many, can have a lasting impact—not just on the earth, but on the communities we call home.

Join Our #WinWithGreenwin Contest!

We also invite our residents to participate in our April #winwithgreenwin contest this Earth Day! Throughout the month, we're encouraging you to upcycle materials you already have at home. Upcycling transforms waste into something new and useful, reducing the amount of waste in our community.
