Developed a completely automated taxi-sharing system, launched the first 100% electric-powered refrigerated truck, announced an urban farming project on the roof of Jean Talon markets. Planted thousands of flowers on a mega landfill, served food under a bridge and in the Olympic Stadium boiler room, developed a genius certification in waste management -Action Reduction. Crossed France with Francis Hallé, reinvented the landscape with Pierre Thibault, sorted through packed snow to pick up garbage in downtown Montreal, put on sunscreen to collect garbage in Marseille.

Since 2015, more than 250 active and direct partnerships have been gathered to support hundreds of thousands of citizens and organizations to keep the movement alive. If you are not already a partner of Earth Day, I invite you to get in touch, take advantage of the expertise that we have, and our infinitely rich networks.
