Educational Outreach

GUEST SPEAKERS, WORKSHOPS, SEMINARS, CONFERENCES AND MORE…

Green Chair is excited to offer educational outreach services for all high schools, colleges and universities in the BC Lower Mainland area.

Are you looking for a passionate speaker to get your audience motivated about sustainability and recycling? Green Chair would love to get involved with your group, school, university or anyone who would like to learn more about sustainability and zero waste! We started the company with the amazing vision of not only providing sustainable services for people and businesses, but also educating and inspiring others so they can do the same thing!

Our team is very flexible and is able to tailor their workshop/presentation to your audience’s needs; from small kindergarten classes through to international waste management conferences and everything in between!

We also offer regular seminars and training sessions to help people achieve zero waste in everything they do. Our upcoming seminars are listed here.
