Village Vancouver

Vancouver's Leader in Transition toward Strong, Resilient, Complete Communities

StyroFree Challenge was developed out of concern for the use of polystyrene in the food industry. The goal of this challenge is to divert restaurant waste from the landfill and promote environmental and human health. We hope to educate the public about the multitude of issues related to polystyrene packaging and to inspire alternative ways of dealing with waste in our community.

If you have a favorite restaurant that you visit regularly, consider talking to the owner about alternatives or if you know of a restaurant that would like to participate in this challenge please email us at info@styrofree.com.

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
