Vancouver’s Climate Emergency Will Change the Way You Live | City Conversations

Cities, Series City Conversations, 2019, Climate + Environment

In January, Vancouver became the second major Canadian city (Montreal was first) to declare the potential effects of future climate change 鈥渁n emergency鈥 for our city. The alternative: more forest fires and floods. Councillor Christine Boyle鈥榮 resolution passed unanimously.

In response, city staff proposed 鈥6 Big Moves鈥 to be implemented within the next six to 11 years.

How will that change the way you live? We鈥檒l easily walk or bike to get most of our daily needs. We鈥檒l use much more public transit, and most private vehicles will be electric. Buildings and water will be heated by solar, wind, and hydro power. New buildings will be 40% more energy efficient. And we鈥檒l restore forests and coastal ecosystems that capture carbon.

To guide us through these changes, we welcome Councillor Christine BoyleAtiya Jaffar, digital campaigner for ;  and New Westminster Councillor Nadine Nakagawa.

Then it鈥檚 your turn to make your observations, ask questions, and express your opinions. It鈥檚 a conversation! Feel free to bring your lunch.

This edition of City Conversations is a presentation of SFU Public Square, sponsored by  and .
