YC Northern Climate Exchange launches Whitehorse Green Guide

 

Whitehorse– Northern Climate Exchange of the Yukon College Research Centre of Excellence launches its first edition of the Whitehorse Green Guide. The guide is in the form of a website with a search toolfor information about where to find ‘green’ products and services in Whitehorse. The website includes additional resources and information on green principles and practices and provides links to other supporting information and resources. 

 

For the purposes of the guide, we have defined ‘green’ products and services as those which have one or more of the attributes and/or certifications that promote any or all of the following outcomes: increased energy efficiency; reduction of greenhouse gas emissions; reduction of toxins; and/or waste reduction. The Whitehorse Green Guide has been developed to help people in Whitehorse identify where and what green products and services are available in Whitehorse and to provide information to help people make more sustainable choices. An online survey was conducted to gather the information.
