About A Greener Future
Our Work
A Greener Future is an environmental non-profit dedicated to leading the effort in sustaining a clean and healthy environment. By bringing together a community of volunteers and environmental stewards, we facilitate programs that eliminate waste from the environment. As education is at the centre of what we do, we inspire change through a variety of learning opportunities. Our programs raise awareness about plastic pollution in the Great Lakes Region, and detailed data collection sheds light on the most common items that are found during litter cleanups. Together, our impact is wide-reaching, bringing us one step closer to our goal.
Since 2014, A Greener Future has picked up more than 9 million pieces of litter.
Since 2014, we have led the effort to REDUCE THE IMPACTS OF LITTER ON THE ENVIRONMENT, ECONOMY, AND PEOPLE.
