Hosted by the Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment and Canadian Association of Nurses for the Environment
Sponsored by the UBC Centre for Community Engaged Learning (CCEL)
Held on September 5, 2026 at Milton Wong Plaza, Vancouver, BC
A member of the GTEC Communications team attended the Healthy Climate Solutions Fair on September 5, 2026. It was a free, welcoming, all-ages event designed to share actionable solutions for a healthier future.
At the fair, you could test an e-bike, join a green urban infrastructure walking tour, and learn how a heat pump can make your home more comfortable and affordable. There were opportunities to talk about climate anxiety with mental health advocates or connect with physicians, clean energy innovators, and community leaders working for a better future. We all want clean air, safe water, and healthy communities — and this event showed how we can have them all.
