Whitehorse Green Guide:

This 3rd edition of the Whitehorse Green Guide is in the form of a website with a search tool and a smart phone application which allows for on-line access to information gathered about where to find ‘green’ products and services in Whitehorse. The website includes additional resources and information on green principles and practices and provides links to other supporting information and resources.

Defining Green: For the purposes of this guide, we have defined ‘green’ products and services as those which have one or more of the attributes and/or certifications that promote any or all of the following outcomes: increased energy efficiency; reduction of greenhouse gas emissions; reduction of toxins; and/or waste reduction. These do not necessarily ensure a green product but may help you to identify greener options.

Making greener choices:

The Whitehorse Green Guide has been developed to help people in Whitehorse identify where and what green products and services are available in Whitehorse and to provide information to help people make more sustainable choices. We encourage everyone to ask more questions about their purchasing options and become more conscious of the impact different choices can have on the environment.

COMING SOON! The 4th edition of the Green Guide will have a brand new look and a new search engine as well as year round updates.  We’re almost ready to launch the new site, stay tuned!
