Make an Impact

From planting native plants for habitat to keeping litter out of it, to switching off for Earth Hour and celebrating National Sweater Day, as a primary or secondary school teacher you can call your students to take action for nature with our suite of activities throughout the school year.

As an educator, you can create an account and:

• Register and record the hands-on actions your students take
• Apply for a  Go Wild Grant  to kick start a project
• Share your story of success to inspire others into action
• Request a classroom certificate to celebrate your positive impact

Together, let’s demonstrate how the actions of each student across Canada helps build a future where people and nature thrive.

College, university and CEGEP students are making a difference for wildlife and nature across Canada. As a student, you can:

• Access hands-on initiatives to lead or join at home, on campus and in your community
• Build leadership skills for your resume and enhance your experiences with sustainability
• Record and track your contributions
• Achieve recognition for your efforts with WWF’s Living Planet Leader certification
• Apply for a Go Wild Grant to kick start a project
• Help to protect our planet

Campus staff and faculty can also take action by leading student and staff activities. They can join our community of Campus Partners, working closely with WWF to champion student success in sustainability.

Sign up to Living Planet @ Work and join hundreds of other green champions that are leading workplace sustainability initiatives. All it takes is passion and a willingness to dedicate a few hours per week to start, and grow, your organization’s efforts. You’ll get access to a wide range of sustainability ideas, tips and resources at no cost. Get started by exploring the different workplace actions you can take!

Native plants help restore habitat for wildlife, including pollinators and species at risk. In the Zone inspires and supports gardeners and other land managers to create beautiful, resilient and healthy habitats – using native plants – that help both wildlife and people thrive.
