Help us help the planet.

Here at Northwest Trek we’re working hard to protect the Earth for everyone. Here’s how you can help:

Avoid idling your car for more than 30 seconds. This helps preserve sea ice for Arctic animals.

Bring a reusable water bottle – and fill it up at one of our  water stations. (Or inside the cafe during winter.) You’ll help protect marine animals from plastic pollution.

Pack your lunch in reusable containers and bring a reusable straw. This helps reduce plastic pollution and greenhouse gases.

Recycle your waste. Recycling bins are next to trash cans – make an Earth-friendly choice!
