City of Toronto
Strong commitment, innovative programs, and over $8 billion in investments are getting results and transforming Toronto into one of the greenest cities in the world.
In 1988, Toronto hosted the first world conference on global warming. And in 1991, Toronto was the first city to establish an agency devoted solely to climate change. Since then, we’ve built on our green traditions, created new programs such as Live Green Toronto to engage the public, and city-wide initiatives like Tower Renewal to revitalize communities while reducing energy consumption.
We’re also proud that we’ve reduced greenhouse gas emissions from City operations by 40% since 1990. Learn about the many innovative ways we’re greening City operations.
