The collection of food scraps is the next logical step in waste diversion efforts and a critical step in efforts to mitigate climate change. Generating and maintaining public participation in Ottawa's new green bin program is of the utmost importance.
Sierra Club Canada will be recruiting, training, deploying and motivating volunteers in Ottawa to give presentations at various locations including schools, their places of work and worship and the many clubs and organizations to which they belong.
Volunteers will be trained to give five to ten minute presentations to Ottawa residents in their community, place of work, school, or other public meeting places. Upon recruitment, each volunteer will receive online training from in both the content and style of the presentation that has been developed by Sierra Club Canada. Further, each volunteer will receive various forms of the presentation to assist the with keeping them on track and on message, and provide to audience members both an audio and visual means of learning the material. To sign up or to learn more, contact the Sierra Club by phone at 613-241-4611 ext. 235 or by email at wastediversion@sierraclub.ca
