I'm at the Clean Air Council Event with many of my municipal colleagues. On behalf of the City of Richmond Hill, I'm happy to sign the 2023-2027 Intergovernmental Declaration on Climate Change. The Clean Air Council is a network of 41 municipalities and health units from across Ontario. Since 2000, Clean Air Council members have been working collaboratively on the development and implementation of clean air, climate change, sustainability and resilience actions. A Sustainability Metrics Program developed collaboratively with the @myRichmondHill, @City_of_Vaughan and @CityBrampton to evaluate and score the environmental sustainability performance of new development applications was featured as a municipal success story, just one of the efforts that #RichmondHill is taking towards addressing #climatechange. council.cleanairpartnership.…

Ontario has consistently overestimated energy demand and erred towards costly infrastructure investments. Great article by Ralph Torrie from @corporateknight. corporateknights.com/energy/…
