Circular Economy Trailblazer Program

Circular Economy Trailblazer Program

Imagine a local economy where waste and pollution are designed out, products and materials are kept in use for longer, and regenerative resources are prioritized. This defines the core principles of a circular economy.

Through the District of Squamish’s new Circular Economy Trailblazer Program, our goal is to empower businesses and non-profits to adopt and integrate circular economy principles and practices, fostering community-wide engagement and participation.

Recognizing Squamish businesses' commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable practices, we are eager to assist in turning your intentions into actionable steps. This involves identifying innovative circular solutions tailored to your organization's unique needs.
