Canada is not on track to meet its 2030 target of reducing GHG emissions by 40-45% per cent below 2005 levels, despite implementing several climate policies and initiatives. At the provincial level, British Columbia has set a target of a 40 per cent reduction below 2007 levels by 2030 and, while it has made progress, much more needs to be done to achieve long-term climate goals.

A key opportunity to achieving these time-sensitive targets is building the capacity of local governments, businesses and civil society to initiate climate action within their sphere of influence.
