The Calgary Climate Hub (CCH) joined with the Calgary Alliance for the Common Good to advance their agenda on meaningful climate action at city hall Monday. In front of a gathering of city councillors, the environmental groups presented bags filled with shortbread; to indicate they feel time is short to take action on climate change.

 

The goal of the environmental groups is for Calgary to meet emissions targets by 2050, otherwise known as net zero.

The CCH and Calgary Alliance formally requested council to put forward a notice that directs administration to include a net zero by 2050 target, with clear interim targets and public accountability.
