Our thanks to the financial supporters and all the volunteers who contributed to The Ecology of Ottawa!  

This booklet and website were created by Ecology Ottawa, a non-profit organization working to make Ottawa the green capital of Canada. We believe that Ottawa residents are concerned about issues such as pollution, waste, and global warming, and that they want sustainable communities where clean air and water, public transit, renewable energy, recycling, and green space protection take priority. We are working with residents and community organizations to ensure that these concerns are heard at city hall.
