	Save water, get Fully Charged

August 2023

The summer of 2023 burns with reminders of the need for climate action. Next month, we're helping power (and offering discounted tickets to) Fully Charged LIVE Canada, the world's leading electric vehicle and clean tech show. We're also celebrating Thompson River University's plans to cut fossil fuel heating in favour of a low-carbon district energy system. And we have tips on stepping up at home to cut your water use, a quiz to test your water smarts, and a Q & A with the BC Hydro manager who just realized her dream of competing on Jeopardy!

Ways we can all help by saving water at home

A few changes can reduce the amount of water you use at a time when we all need to step up.
