Canadian cities, home to over 82% of our population, are key battlegrounds in the fight against climate change. Cities account for over 70% of global CO2 emissions, most of which come from industrial and motorized transport systems, but also buildings.
The urgency to decarbonize resonates across all Canadian cities. Decarbonizing means rethinking our urban fabric, from the energy that powers our homes and buildings to the way we move around.
