The Un arbre pour mon quartier campaign invites Montrealers to participate in the greening of their city by planting a tree on their property at a reduced cost. The campaign is organized by Soverdi and the Regroupement des Éco-quartiers (REQ).
Did you know that the island of Montreal is criss-crossed by streams? This new campaign raises public awareness of their existence, and organizes clean-up operations and the planting of native vegetation along the banks of streams and in their watersheds.
The ICI, on verdit! campaign enables companies of all sizes to offer their employees healthier, fresher and greener workplaces.
Cleaning up the banks of the St. Lawrence River on land and beneath the surface is what the Opération nettoyage 360° project has been doing since 2018. To date, over 12 tonnes of waste have been removed from our great river thanks to more than 1,300 volunteers.
The Ensemble on verdit campaign is GRAME’s latest initiative. Launched in 2021, it enables trees felled on residential properties to be replaced at lower cost.
Since 2011, GRAME has been carrying out various activities in the Lachine community as part of the Éco-quartier program: workshops, awareness-raising kiosks, clean-up operations, collective gardens and more, not to mention an eco-boutique offering environmentally-friendly products.

The GEStes Challenge is the antidote par excellence to feelings of powerlessness in the face of the climate crisis! Fun, guilt-free and simple, the GEStes Challenge promotes eco-responsible habits among citizens aged 12 to 17, enabling them to make simple changes within their reach. The project is supported by Coop FA, GRAME and GUEPE.
