Welcome to the Edmonton Climate Hub!
The Edmonton Climate Hub is a volunteer-led, non-profit organization that unites a diverse group of Edmontonians for effective local, cooperative action on climate change. We represent a variety of communities, industries, cultures and causes that are taking the demand for a post-carbon economy to the streets, to influencers, and policymakers. We are collecting and sharing data on local greenhouse gas outputs to drive and assess Edmonton's transition to a net-zero standard.
