It was a firefly extravaganza! A huge crowd joined us @FanshaweCA last night to learn about a fireflies lifecycle, body parts and fun facts. Then out into the meadow to capture (and release) the magical fireflies! @UTRCAmarketing

Safe, clean drinking water is vital for the health of Oxford County. In 2023, Public Works supplied 10.7 million cubic metres of safe, clean drinking water to 21 communities—the equivalent of 4,280 Olympic-sized pools full of water!#NPWW2024
Our gr. 6 and 7 GREEN Leaders at Tecumseh PS chose species at risk as their enviro issue to explore this year. They've been working hard, and even created informational posters to let the public know how they can help. 🐟🐍 Find them displayed at @londonlibrary Landon branch!
At the @WesternuSciRen yesterday @UTRCAmarketing had a booth showing flood hazards and how natural surfaces mitigate flooding better than artificially paved surfaces. The staff really connected with the audience of mostly children. Their educational work gives me a lot of hope.
