Climate Action Plans

Data Tools for Community Energy Planners and Climate Coordinators

Kyle Bassett from Climate Neutral presented on the results of the Climate Action Working Group which brought together a group of Ontario municipalities to use the tools developed by Climate Neutral to support and empower municipalities of all sizes to provide municipal councils and decision makers with data intelligence. The tool can be used to create greenhouse gas inventories, develop climate action plans, and track progress.

Carbon Credits – Municipal Considerations and Leading Practices

The goal of this meeting and discussion was to share some of the research, learnings and policies that have been compiled across the Clean Air Council network thus far on carbon credit policies, the questions that are going through your brains, conversations that have occurred thus far within your municipalities to better understand the interests re carbon market participation within your municipality and the implications that need to be considered in developing a municipal carbon credit policy. The goal is to bring this collective research together to reduce the need to duplicate research efforts across the network.

CAC Webinar: SSG’s GHG Calculator for Municipal Projects

In this webinar, Sustainability Solutions Group (SSG) presented their new GHG Calculator for Municipalities, a free tool for municipal staff across all departments who want to understand the climate impact of their decisions.

This tool was designed by SSG together with the City of Calgary, Region of Durham, and City of Ottawa so that they could quickly understand the greenhouse gas implications of policies and decisions, such as instituting a composting program or adopting a policy to reduce greenfield development.
