Join us for a special World Friendship Day edition of Love Your Lakes at High Park in Toronto!

On July 30, A Greener Future is hosting cleanups in each region to celebrate friendship, community, and the impact we can make when we show up together. Invite a friend, bring someone you care about, or come ready to make new friends while helping create cleaner parks, shorelines, and waterways.

Friendship Day Prize Draw: Each registered volunteer who checks in at the event will be entered to win a prize for themselves and a friend. Please make sure each person registers separately so we have everyone’s waiver and contact information ready to go.

At this event, volunteers will remove litter from the park and surrounding area while helping A Greener Future collect important data about what is ending up in the environment. This data helps us better understand litter trends and work toward long-term solutions.

No experience is needed. Our team will provide supplies, a quick orientation, and support throughout the cleanup. This event is designed to be relaxed and flexible, so come when you can and stay as long as you’re comfortable.

After the cleanup, stick around for a donut and a casual Friendship Day hangout with optional games. We’ll have time to connect, celebrate the impact made together, and enjoy the park.

Tracking tobacco waste to combat contraband.

This isn't just a cleanup, it's citizen science in action. It’s a research-driven event where collected cigarette waste is documented and analyzed to better understand illegal tobacco products and their impact. A Greener Future has partnered with researchers to analyze cigarette filter waste and track the presence of legal versus contraband tobacco products in our communities. Your participation helps:

✅ Combat contraband tobacco by providing real-world data on illegal products
✅ Advance scientific understanding of cigarette litter composition and environmental impact
✅ Protect local ecosystems by removing toxic waste from our shared spaces
✅ Contribute to policy change through evidence-based research

Every cigarette butt you collect becomes part of a larger dataset that informs tobacco regulation, environmental protection, and public health initiatives.

Event Details

🗓 Date: August 14, 2026

About This Research Partnership

A Greener Future is proud to partner with Rothmans, Benson and Hedges Inc. (RBH) to conduct qualitative analysis of cigarette litter in Canada. This research addresses a critical gap in tobacco science by tracking real-world product use through environmental waste analysis, which contributes to broader efforts to understand and reduce illegal tobacco products in Canada.

Key research goals:

• Identify the proportion of legal versus contraband tobacco products

• Monitor changes in filter types as regulations evolve

• Contribute to peer-reviewed scientific literature on tobacco waste

• Support evidence-based policy development

Your participation makes this research possible. Together, we're building a cleaner, healthier future through citizen science.

Tracking tobacco waste to combat contraband.

This isn't just a cleanup, it's citizen science in action. It’s a research-driven event where collected cigarette waste is documented and analyzed to better understand illegal tobacco products and their impact. A Greener Future has partnered with researchers to analyze cigarette filter waste and track the presence of legal versus contraband tobacco products in our communities. Your participation helps:

✅ Combat contraband tobacco by providing real-world data on illegal products
✅ Advance scientific understanding of cigarette litter composition and environmental impact
✅ Protect local ecosystems by removing toxic waste from our shared spaces
✅ Contribute to policy change through evidence-based research

Every cigarette butt you collect becomes part of a larger dataset that informs tobacco regulation, environmental protection, and public health initiatives.
