Toronto Community Housing has developed a Green Plan called Green Works. The plan sets out an approach to the greening of Toronto Community Housing and includes numerous initiatives and activities that engage staff, tenants and stakeholders. Green Works is an ongoing program that promotes a healthy environment and improves living standards and working conditions. We are taking a leading role in reducing energy consumption, recycling and the overall "greening" of our community.

The approach will be pro-active, systematic and comprehensive in seeking to prevent pollution wherever possible, and committed to ensuring that all sectors of the company are involved and engaged.
