ReThink Red Deer

ReThink Red Deer se consacre à l'amélioration de la qualité de vie à long terme à Red Deer et dans les environs.

Notre philosophie est que nous sommes d'abord des citoyens et ensuite des consommateurs ; que notre monde est limité et emprunté aux générations futures ; que nous pouvons vivre de manière durable et en harmonie avec la nature ; et que l'inspiration est une ressource renouvelable.

ReThink Red Deer coordinates its action around four key principles: 1) Smart Urban Planning 2) Protecting and Enhancing Natural Assets 3) Transportation Alternatives 4) Reinvigorating the Democratic Process

We believe in starting where we can – with our own lives, and our own community – Red Deer. Our organization assembles around the practices of a “for-benefit” organization; integrating social and environmental aims with business approaches. ReThink Red Deer is applying a social enterprise model, selling soil amending products (worm castings and rock dust) as well as microgreens and vegetables grown at our urban homestead and sold at local markets through “The Root Cellar: ecoStore & Apothecary“. We aim to couple environmental responsibility and community service while using our earned revenue for projects that responsibly inform citizens and contribute to the common good.
