How do Ontario residents understand building decarbonization and climate adaptation—and what does that mean for local governments? In this webinar, the EcoAnalytics’ Clean Cities Research (CCR) Project team shared Ontario-specific findings from their Phase 3 survey, with a practical focus on implications for municipalities. The session was tailored for municipal staff working on climate action, buildings, and adaptation, and explored how public attitudes can support effective policy development and communications.
