The Greenhouse Gas Management Plan for Civic Operations 2019-2030 was presented to Urban Planning Committee on May 22 and City Council on May 29, 2018.
Council has directed Administration to develop a Corporate Greenhouse Gas Management Implementation Plan, as outlined in the Greenhouse Gas Management Plan for Civic Operations 2019-2030, based on an carbon reduction scenario accelerating the plan outlined for a 50% reduction (below 2005) levels by 2030.
The plan and related summary document outline a proposed method to achieve a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from City operations by 2030 (from 2005 levels). This will contribute to Edmonton’s long-term goal of carbon-neutrality as set out in the Global Covenant of Mayors, the Edmonton Declaration and the 1.5 degree scenario.
