On Tuesday, December 4th, join the Toronto Environmental Alliance for an evening of celebration, engaging speakers, good humour and local heroes.
Every December, hundreds of Toronto’s environmental leaders, activists, politicians and media come together for a night of celebration in support of TEA’s work advocating for a greener city for all.
This year, TEA launches The Greener City Celebration hosted by comedian Nile Seguin.
