Environmental
action & education
in Cape Breton.
ACAP Cape Breton is an environmental non-profit organization that offers the knowledge that Cape Bretoners need to make greener choices, and works directly on practical solutions that help protect and restore our natural environment.
Our mission is to support resilient, environmentally-sustainable communities across Unama’ki-Cape Breton.
Our work spans four core areas: Habitat Restoration, Environmental Monitoring, Environmental Education, and Waste Diversion.
We weave considerations of climate change adaptation and biodiversity conservation into all of our work.
ACAP offers a variety of services including forest and stream restoration, hands on environmental education, special events, community cleanups, internship placements, volunteer opportunities and so much more!
Are you a private land owner who is interested in reforesting your land?
Community Cleanup Collective
The Trashformers can’t do it all. In order to make a change in our community we all need to come together and do our part. That is why we are piloting the ACAP Cape Breton Community Cleanup Collective to mobilize citizens and facilitate action by community members who are passionate about the environment. If you are interested in hosting or participating in community clean ups, let us know!
