Abstract: 
The purpose of the IS FIVE FOUNDATION is to help in the building of a conserver society. Recyling, the FOUNDATION's initial enterprise, represented a first step towards that goal and in addition has provided a source of revenue. IS FIVE was founded in 1974 as a non-profit corporation.The following year the group began collecting glass and metal in one area of Toronto foe recycling. This project was only one part of a larger consumer education effort that included such initiatives as conservation education programmes in elementary and secundary schools and workshops on nutrition and organic gardening.
IS FIVE has also diversified, and the operation now includes a publishing house.
