Awareness to Action

 

Creating a healthier and resilient future is a collective effort. When we open up conversations about climate pollution with those around us, we ignite a wave of understanding and action. We understand everyone's climate journey is unique. Whether you are just beginning to explore or ready to take bold action, we're here to support you every step of the way. Together, we build a stronger, more informed community, united in our belief that change is possible. Find your place within this community and join us in making a lasting impact right here at home.

Greening Home Energy

 

Our program is designed to help our community thrive in the face of climate change. We're focusing on three key areas to create a more sustainable and resilient future for everyone:

  • Climate Resilient Development: We're working with planners, developers, builders, and community members to create a relationship representative of the co-benefits of resilient buildings.

  • Municipal Green Development Standards: We're advocating for stronger environmental standards for infrastructure and developments.  

  • Home Retrofits: Whether it's upgrading insulation, switching to cleaner energy sources or simply making small changes, every step towards a greener, healthier home helps to protect our community. 

​​​Proactive Advocacy​

 

Working hand-in-hand with local leaders and community members is imperative to create a healthier, more resilient region. We continue to foster our strong relationships with town staff and council members to ensure climate considerations are integrated into every decision-making process. As trusted advisors to the town, we offer support in shaping policies and programs which support a thriving, climate-pollution free future. Supporting the creation of our Community Climate Action Plan will help to ensure it reflects the needs and aspirations of all residents and lays a solid foundation for a sustainable region. ​

The Collingwood Climate Action Team is based on the traditional territory of the Haundenosaunee and Anishinabek peoples and, specifically, unceded Saugeen Ojibway territory. Our ancestors established a treaty relationship and responsibility with the Chippewas of Nawash Unceded First Nation and Saugeen First Nation, collectively the Saugeen Ojibway Nation (SON) - which we strive to uphold today. We are thankful for the opportunity to benefit from the continuing protection and stewardship of the land, air and waters by Indigenous Peoples who have protected them for thousands of years. This area we now call home is also home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples with whom we wish to work together towards truth and reconciliation.
