Climate Change & Sustainability

  • Email

The Town of New is committed to ambitious climate action. As a member of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy, and the Federation of Canadian Municipalities – Partners for Climate Protection Program, the Town of New Glasgow is implementing measures to reach climate change goals and reduce greenhouse gas emissions in our community.

In 2022, Town Council approved the Community Climate Action Plan. The community plan outlines how the Town will reduce its community emissions by 50% below 2018 levels by 2030. It includes both long-term and short-term goals for achieving significant greenhouse gas reductions across five sectors: Buildings; Transportation; Waste; Policy, Planning, & Procedures; and Collaboration, Adaptation, & Resilience.
