Last week we brought you the Story of Stuff video.
Today we follow up with the Story of Change. This video “takes viewers through an inspiring exploration of what effective changemaking has looked like through history—from Gandhi in India to the US Civil Rights movement to the environmental victories of the 1970s—and shares the things you’ll find whenever people get together and change the world: a big idea, a commitment to working together, and a whole lot of action. She also let’s viewers know that making change will take all kinds of people, offers a series of changemaker identities and ends the movie with a question for viewers: Which are you?”

Have you heard about The Story of Stuff video?
“The Story of Stuff Project’s journey began with a 20-minute online movie about the way we make, use and throw away all the Stuff in our lives.
We have a problem with Stuff. We use too much, too much of it is toxic and we don’t share it very well. But that’s not the way things have to be. Together, we can build a society based on better not more, sharing not selfishness, community not division.”
At Denbow, our services include recycling many different wood waste products that would otherwise likely be burned or fill landfills. We use the materials we produce on various erosion and sediment control projects. These applications save our soil from erosion and reduce sediment runoff in our water. We believe that our “innovating naturally” solutions help us be better stewards.
Take the time to watch The Story of Stuff video… it will make you think!

Vancouver is included on this list of the 10 Greenest Cities in the World.
At Denbow, we are honored to play a role in greening up Vancouver and our Fraser Valley with many of our Green Infrastructure products – from green roofs, roof-top gardens and urban gardens, to stormwater management and our Cascadia Green Wall System.
“Ambitious, necessary, and possible” is the road map for Vancouver becoming the greenest city by 2020. “This plan sets the course toward realizing a healthy, prosperous, and resilient future for [Vancouver]. It calls on us all to rise to the challenge of transforming our community to create a better life for future generations.” For more information and implementation updates, click here.
Check out our new timelapse video showing a playground surfacing conversion from pea gravel to PlayChips that we completed for the District of North Vancouver. The timelapse is on our YouTube channel here.

How can you tell that the nice weather has arrived and people are ready to get out and play? The orders are coming in for fresh Denbow Playchips. Kids are busy playing and we keep them safe if they fall – our certified PlayChips are used in backyards, schools and parks.
Under blue skies and sunshine this morning, Andre and Jamie got busy running their machines in tandem to produce another fresh round of Playchips. It all starts with some nice pine, fir or spruce mill-ends.
We move it through our specific process to become the perfect product to help keep children safe on your play structure. Our PlayChips are manufactured to a rigid specification, and certified for fall attenuation.
Call us to place your order – we deliver or blow it in! Or, come on by our Chilliwack yard to pickup a load.
Denbow is proud to be helping keep our community kids safe.
