New Post: Climate Action and Innovation in Canadian Municipalities
September 27, 2022
From 2021-2022, FlipSide Sustainability developed four briefing notes showcasing the policy relevant highlights from the Municipalities for Climate Innovation Program (MCIP). MCIP distributed $75 million over a five-year period (2016-2021) to municipalities across Canada to work on climate action through eight MCIP program areas. The goal of the following four briefing notes is to identify both common and innovative forms of adaptation and mitigation planning and action that can support the acceleration of effective climate action in municipalities across Canada.
