Who is Eco-Build for?
-
Community members looking to explore sustainable building, renovation and retrofit options to make their homes, offices and land use more sustainable.
-
Local businesses providing Eco-efficient products and services that may be used to build renovate or improve the sustainability of development on the island.
Why do we need Eco-Build?
-
Salt Spring is developing and we can all help to ensure that it is developed sustainably. Thankfully along with property development demand for sustainable building design, products and services is also increasing and many of our local designers, builders and suppliers are responding.
-
Eco-Build aims to encourage these initiatives by helping new and existing residents find local designers, builders and suppliers who can help them to make sustainable choices.
Who is I-SEA?
-
The Institute for Sustainability Education and Action (I-SEA), is a local non-profit organization dedicated to being a positive force for communities, organizations, and individuals that are striving to practice sustainability. We have been supporting community based sustainability initiatives on Salt Spring Island since the start of 2003. For more information on I-SEA go to www.i-sea.org.
-
Through Eco-build I-SEA hopes to help build a sustainable Salt Spring by encouraging demand for, and businesses supplying, sustainable building, renovation and retrofit options and information on the Island and throughout the Gulf Islands.
