About Us

GreenPique is a directory and knowledge base of information about Canadian businesses, community groups, institutions, and individuals working to solve the climate crisis.

We think that showing how Canadian initiatives are connected will help us work together to achieve our mutual goal of achieving zero emissions by 2050 at the latest.

GreenPique helps people looking for:

  • Green business alternatives in a variety of industries (including building, energy, investing, and transportation)
  • Climate action community groups, organizations, & institutions

And, we’re here for:

Green businesses that want to create greater awareness of their products and services.

Green community groups looking for members and volunteers, and seeking greater awareness.

Green organizations and institutions that want to provide information about their mandate, services, and people.

Who We Are

I’m Jinnean Barnard, Director of GreenPique. I started GreenPique in 2020 as a way to learn more about climate solutions in Canada and, most importantly, to do something tangible. I’m a communications strategist and GreenPique is my ever-evolving, “work-in-progress” response to scientist Katherine Hayhoe’s suggestion that, “to solve climate change, we have to talk about it.” I’m doing what I know to help Canadians and people in my local community.
