Participants will learn about cutting-edge sustainable building technologies installed at Earth Rangers Centre and will also have an opportunity to meet Earth Rangers’ Animal Ambassadors and live species that inspire visitors to take environmental action every day.

Julia Langer, CEO of The Atmospheric Fund, will provide a special presentation on leading energy-efficient buildings and sustainability initiatives in the Greater Toronto Area that have been supported by foundation and government investments.

The field trip will conclude with a hike to the Kortright Centre for a guided tour of the Archetype Sustainable House and live bee Apiary. Pre-registration is required.
