ABOUT US

We are a group of Canadian University students from a variety of programs looking to help others reduce their impact on the environment.

The Planet A Collective was created to bring awareness to environmental issues and to provide others with the information needed to create change.

As we go along in our journey, we hope to provide helpful tips and tricks to others so that they can transition into a low-impact lifestyle and to get involved with taking care of their environment.
