Official description

Develop and implement a “climate test” to evaluate and document the climate implications of significant capital projects and policy decisions
(Full action name in the CCAS)

Description

Many of the City’s capital projects and policy decisions have direction implications on GHG emissions and climate-resiliency. By applying a ‘climate test’, the City can evaluate these projects for alignment with climate objectives. This test is envisioned as a simple tool to help inform policy and decision makers by providing important insights into the potential climate performance of a policy or project. The results of the climate test can be used to prioritize initiatives that help to reduce GHG emissions and adapt to climate change.
