Go for Green week is an event held July 5 to 11 to raise awareness that even small changes make a big difference, said Recycling and Environmental Action Planning Society program manager. We need to live smart, said Terri McClymont. "We need to see what we can do in and out of the house," she said. Each day at 1 p.m. at the REAPS garden, 1950 Gorse Street, the recycling team will host a children's craft-making event using recycled material while adults can find out more information about how to recycle, reuse and reduce more efficiently. "If you make one change a week you can make a huge difference," said McClymont. Start taking shorter showers, turn off the water while brushing your teeth, or put the sprinkler on a timer. These small steps can lead to big changes. For more ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle visit the REAPS website www.reaps.org or visit the garden at 1 p.m. from July 5 to 11 at 1950 Gorse St.
