Welcome to
Climate Caucus
We are a non-partisan network of 650+ current and former local elected leaders and over 1400 Non-elected allies, leading the transformation needed for communities to thrive within planetary boundaries.
2030 Vision
Communities are leading the transformation needed to thrive* within planetary boundaries.
Thrive means communities are resilient, healthy, regenerative, decarbonized, and socially just.
"The Climate Caucus is an essential source of inspiration, information and insight. Being part of a national network of municipal leaders has helped me gain an understanding of the range of possibilities we have at our disposal to build a just, regenerative future.”
- Juliana Barnard, Town of Truro Councillor, Nova Scotia
“I joined Climate Caucus so I can learn, along with other School Trustees, best practices for reducing GHG emissions to meet our provincially -mandated targets by 2030 and how to integrate sustainable practices into school district policies, learning opportunities, and infrastructure. School trustees can and should take a leadership role in addressing the climate crisis – in part because of the urgency of the climate crisis and in part to provide hope and leadership for our increasingly climate-anxious youth.”
- Shannon Aldinger, Comox Valley School Trustee
“I always learn something new from the virtual gatherings and meetings, and it's important to stay connected with value-aligned colleagues across the country to build coalition for stronger advocacy outcomes.”
- Keren Tang, City of Edmonton Councillor
“Climate Caucus members are often trying to do things that haven’t been done before at the local level- and dealing with limited resources and/or knowledge from municipal staff. Climate Caucus helps build a strong, evidence-based case for change. From there, we’re able to assess pushback from staff, community, and industry, and build a stronger case to bring forward”
- Megan Curren, Former Councillor District of North Vancouver
“Climate Caucus allows elected members from municipalities across Canada to stand together as a collective for better Climate Change initiatives at a local level”
- Councillor Lori Baldwin Sands, St. Thomas Ontario
