Title
Climate Budgeting Update
Recommendation
The Environmental Services Committee recommends to the Capital Regional District Board:
That staff be directed to:
1. Work internally on the elements of Climate Budgeting to understand what new governance mechanisms would look like in practice.
2. Develop public communications materials, based on the latest greenhouse gas inventory data, for use by the CRD and local governments that more clearly communicate the urgency of this policy issue; and
3. Utilize Climate Budgeting approaches in the CRD’s next climate action strategy planning cycle.
