Ten months have passed since the city of Vancouver passed its road map to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions, and officials are inviting residents to learn about the effort’s progress.
Vancouver’s Climate Action Framework, approved December 2022, contains nearly 90 actions designed to reach carbon neutrality by 2040. Much of the work to date has been foundational. Municipal departments have hired climate-focused staff, developed community-centered climate programs and identified means to minimize the government’s carbon footprint.
A presentation detailing these efforts will be given at 4 p.m. Monday during a city council workshop, which will be streamed live on www.cvtv.org.
The next framework review will take place in the coming years, though the progress report allows for slight adjustments if necessary.
