City of Edmonton declares climate emergency
Edmonton city council officially declared a climate emergency on Tuesday.
Ten councillors voted in favour of making the declaration, while also paving the way for actionable steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Edmonton.
Council passed two resolutions Tuesday: a plan to respond to climate change – with a revised Community Energy Transition Strategy – and the climate emergency declaration.
“This is a response to science first and foremost,” Mayor Don Iveson said. “I’m very comfortable in taking an evidence-based approach to this policy question.

The computer model forecasts or the actual boots-on-the-ground collected data? There is a big difference...
Hate to think of what this will do to their economy.
