Environment

The mission of the Environment Committee is to increase the vibrancy of Cliff Bungalow-Mission through its green spaces and gardens, and advocate for sustainable living in Calgary.

 

The Environment Committee has a number of ongoing projects, including: 

• hosting the annual river and pathway cleanup and barbecue, with the communities of Erlton and Rideau-Roxboro, in May;

• managing the Mission and Cliff Bungalow community gardens;

• improving the neighbourhood's heritage parks, green spaces and tree canopy by building new gardens and planting trees in underutilized spaces;

• engaging with residents, dog owners, schools and other interested parties to ensure everyone's voice is heard and that our green spaces are safe spaces for all;

• hosting the annual Swap! Drop! Donate! community clean-up in September;

• advocating for our urban canopy and heritage trees;

• playing a central role on the committee tasked with maintaining and improving the grounds around CBMCA's historic building on Cliff Street SW;

• supporting cycling infrastructure in the community.
