Every year, Canadian Environment Week highlights the importance of protecting our environment. Held from June 1st–7th, this national initiative celebrates Canada’s environmental progress and inspires individuals, communities, and industries to take meaningful action.

 

A Time to Reflect—and Act

Established in 1971, Canadian Environment Week has always been about awareness and encouraging change. In 2025, with increasing challenges from climate change, plastic pollution, and urban development, this week is more relevant than ever.

This year's themes focus on:

  • Combating plastic pollution
  • Engaging local communities
  • Empowering youth to drive sustainable change

 

Tackling Plastic Pollution at the Source

One of the most pressing issues facing our environment is plastic pollution. From clogged storm drains to polluted rivers and oceans, plastic waste continues to harm wildlife and water quality across Canada.

 

At EnviroPod™, we’re committed to helping cities and industries stop plastic pollution before it reaches our waterways. Our LittaTrap™ catchbasin insert is a simple, effective tool that captures plastic and trash at the storm drain (catch basin)—where it starts.

With over 65,000 LittaTraps™ installed worldwide and growing adoption across Canada, it’s a proven solution that helps communities meet environmental goals, including Full Trash Capture and local sustainability targets.

Explore some of the case studies in Canada and how the LittaTrap™ and EnviroBasin® are protecting waterways and the environment HERE.
