REAPS will be posting weekly eco-tips, ideas, events, and videos that will stimulate your green side and motivate you to try something new and easy towards a greener path. For those already on the green side we hope to provide you new ideas / concepts that will challenge you to do one more thing. Remember: one small step taken by many accumulates to BIG changes locally, provincially, nationally and globally!
