Progress of this action is dependent on additional staff capacity.
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.
