Artificial Turf Concerns: Health and Environment

New Bestminster •6 months ago Many elements of artificial turf fields are hypothesized to be carcinogenic. Science takes a long time to prove things, but the evidence is adding up. They certainly contribute to environmental concerns, however, such as urban heat, biodiversity loss, and microplastic pollution.

Dogs and Bikes

New Bestminster •6 months ago Dogs love barking at bikes and chasing them along the fence. Something to visually separate them might reduce the stress for everybody.

Tool Libraries, Community Gardens, and Workshops

New Bestminster •7 months ago Most of the space in New West is apartment buildings and nobody has the room to DIY! We could use a lot more spaces to work with our hands: places like community gardens, tool libraries, community workshops, and repair cafes.Growing food, borrowing niche tools, and having spaces for woodworking, textiles, and repairs can help build community prosperity through sweat equity without the barrier of needing a brick and mortar storefront. People can even make money holding classes or selling what they make. Spaces like these help people make friends, gain new skills, and access tools to hone in their trade.A good local economy is a sustainable one. High-quality, repairable, and locally-made goods based on relationships make for healthy people, prosperous communities, and resilient economies.
