Water Conservation in BC and Alberta

There is a growing interest in understanding how to improve the ways in which we use water. The BC government is trend-setting with its new site www.livingwatersmart.ca

The National Research Council Canada (NRC) has a great new site www.geoscape.nrcan.gc.ca/h2o/gulf/index_e.php that gives complete information about the water processes around your home on the Gulf Islands, and what you can do to reduce the impact of your activities there.
