Sustainable Environment Network Society
3300-37 Ave, Vernon, British Columbia
SENS has been active in B.C. for over 35 years, beginning as a volunteer group in 1971 when we initiated a glass recycling pilot study. In 1982, we became a registered society under the name "The North Okanagan Recycling Society". Later we changed our name to "North Okanagan Waste Stewardship Society", because residents confused NORS with NORD, the North Okanagan Regional District. The name change to "Sustainable Environment Network Society" reflects our broader range of activities promoting environmental care. SENS' purpose is to advocate solutions to environmental problems and provide a healthy, sustainable future for our community.
