Community volunteers help to protect and enhance the Coquitlam’s natural environment. Since 2004, the City has recognized more than 75 groups and hundreds of volunteers who take on initiatives year-round that support environmental sustainability.
Residents with an interest in the environment are encouraged to sign up as a City volunteer to take part in activities such as invasive plant removal, tree planting, helping at environmental events and wearing the City’s bear and salmon mascot costumes – details are available at coquitlam.ca/volunteer.
