Montreal's ecosystems, at your service! Stories connecting people & nature. Montréal à Votre Service Think about your daily routine.

Every day, each person in Montreal, eats meals, takes a shower, exercises, commutes, works, and enjoys life. For the most part we do this without considering how nature contributes to our wellbeing and enables our daily activities. Ecosystem services - the benefits that people obtain from nature - surround us each day, even though we might not always be aware of them.
