Inspiring Fun Facts: Why Your Everyday Actions Make a Difference

  • Plastic bottles: Over 1 million plastic bottles are purchased every minute globally. If just 1 in 3 people used a reusable bottle, we’d cut billions of bottles from landfills and oceans each year.
  • Plant-based eating: If every Canadian went plant-based just one day a week, it would be like removing over 1 million cars from the road.
  • Turning off lights: If every home in Canada turned off just five lights for an hour each day, we’d save enough energy to power 60,000 homes for a year.
  • Public transit: If just 10% more people took public transit, we’d reduce CO2 emissions by over 1 million tonnes annually.
  • Composting: Food waste makes up 30% of what ends up in landfills. Composting can reduce methane emissions and help soil regeneration.
  • Fast fashion: Every year, over 92 million tonnes of clothing end up in landfills. Choosing secondhand or sustainable clothing helps reduce this enormous waste and saves precious resources like water and energy.

Your Sustainable Future Starts Today

Choosing to live sustainably doesn’t mean overhauling your entire life. It means noticing the little things. It means realizing that change starts with awareness—and grows with practice. By taking this quiz, you’ve taken your first step. And with every bottle you reuse, every meal you shift, and every item you repurpose, you’re building a more conscious, connected, and compassionate world. Sustainability isn’t a trend. It’s how we protect the environment, care for our communities, and leave something better behind. One action, one habit, one day at a time.
