London Clean & Green

The City of London and its partners in London Clean & Green have established this website to help Londoners and London-area businesses keep our city Clean & Green.

London Clean & Green coordinates the work of various organizations in cleaning up London parks, roadways, business sites, schoolyards, and the Thames River during the spring period. This year April 20th is the major day when thousands of Londoners will work together to help 'clean and green' neighbourhoods and parks around our city. We will pick up litter, remove graffiti and plant trees. Please join us!  When you do, you can be proud of being part of a growing trend across Ontario, Canada and North America that happens every April.

London Clean and Green Background Information

London Clean and Green originated about fifteen years ago as a single day event aimed at gathering volunteers to clean up the garbage and graffiti in London's downtown core. Over the years the event grew to include more volunteers, to cover a larger area, and involve a variety of organizations.

London Clean and Green welcomes and appreciates the effort that any individual or organization would like to give to improve or preserve the environmental wellbeing of our community. However, London Clean and Green believes in positive promotion and not advocacy or activism. Because of this we ask that anyone wishing to participate with the London Clean and Green be: organizing an event that promotes positive environmental stewardship OR providing financial or in-kind (materials, services, volunteers, etc.) donations to an existing event.

If you would like to have your environmental event included among the area's most successful, if you would like to donate some well needed materials to a good cause, or if you want to offer your own time to help improve our environment, consider joining the London Clean and Green team.
