Love Your Rain Drop

Zac Whyte and the Comox Valley Regional Distict are Keeping It Living.
“The Comox Valley Regional District (CVRD) has launched a new water education campaign urging residents to adopt simple measures that will assist in achieving a 27 percent reduction in consumption for the Comox Valley water system by 2014.“
