If your country has an NDC and your city’s target is less ambitious than the NDC, please explain why.3Target was set as part of Climate Emergency Response, the City's plan to remain on an IPCC-recommended emissions pathway for 1.5'C.
11746720113City of VancouverCanada, North AmericaCanadaEmissions ReductionMitigation Target setting5.2aPlease identify and describe the conditional components of your city-wide emissions reduction target(s).0Many components of the City's GHG reductions will be conditional on involvement from senior levels of government. Examples of these changes and priorities include mobility pricing (as a tool to limit congestion and raise funds for transit), right-to-charge rules for electric vehicle owners in multi-unit residential buildings, ride-hailing legislation that aligns with zero emissions principles and complements sustainable travel, supporting the All On Board campaign, accelerated transit electrification, a bold vision for the Regional Transportation Strategy, energy performance benchmarking for buildings, counting district energy systems with heat from renewable energy as a contributor towards the targets in BC’s new renewable gas standard, and electricity pricing that supports electrification. At implementation level, the City will seek to leverage opportunities from existing Federal and Provincial programs, rather than developing standalone programs (e.g., pilot projects in partnership with the provincial government to retrofit affordable market rental housing and non-market housing).The projected GHG reductions necessary to achieve our goals will also depend on specifically Provincial measures. Of the 1.2 million tonnes of reductions targeted for 2030 from buildings, transportation and solid waste, City actions within the Climate Emergency Response will achieve ~1.1 million tonnes. The remaining 0.1 million tonnes plus a 0.1 million tonne buffer would be addressed by two key provincial policies that reduce the carbon intensity of transportation fuels and the gas grid. The Renewable Gas Standard will require 15 per cent of the gas in FortisBC’s distribution network to come from renewable sources by 2030, which will help reduce an additional 135,000 tonnes of carbon pollution in Vancouver. The Low Carbon Fuel Standard will require a 20 per cent cut in the carbon intensity of transportation fuels in BC by 2030, which will help reduce an additional 38,000 tonnes of carbon pollution in Vancouver.

11747120113City of VancouverCanada, North AmericaCanadaEmissions ReductionMitigation Target setting5.3aPlease provide details on the use of transferable emissions.4Please identify which target this refers to and describe the transferable emissions unit in particular the source of the transferable units1PERCENTAGES AND EMISSIONS SAVED ARE ESTIMATES ONLY. Staff anticipate that transitioning to 100 per cent renewable energy before 2050 will result in carbon pollution being reduced by approximately 75 per cent from 2007 levels in 2040, and more than 95 per cent in 2050. That potentially leaves as much as 5% of the city-wide emissions target that will have to be met using carbon removals of some sort. The Climate Emergency Response includes a Big Move to complete forest and coastal ecosystem restoration to sequester carbon: enough to achieve this 5% and more.

Several of the 10 GCAP goals span all of these themes. For instance, our GHG reduction targets (captured under the Climate and Renewables goal) depend on action on building energy use (Green Buildings), shifting to more active transportation modes (Green Transportation), and waste diversion from landfill (Zero Waste). Action in the Lighter Footprint goal (citizen engagement on GCAP) has yielded multiple co-benefits. One local example is a community program that made use of commercial kitchen space at a local Neighbourhood House to provide free food skills training to at-risk youth, making food products from imperfect but edible produce (that would have likely gone to compost or landfill) from local grocers. This one program had benefits ranging from waste reduction, green jobs creation and upskilling, increasing food access, and food-system efficiencies. Going “green” is also good for business and great for the local economy. This can be measured in a variety of ways, including job creation, job transition, innovation, process efficiencies, increased sales/revenues, etc. In Vancouver, the green economy employs 1 in 15 workers, well above any other North American city and this is growing at 7.8% per year on average for the past three years. The carbon intensity of Vancouver’s economy (tonnes of carbon pollution per dollar of GDP) has fallen by 29 per cent since 2007. Establishing effective policies that address climate change can accelerate innovation in cleantech, green building technologies, advanced materials, local food, solid waste and transportation options. It is estimated that green building policies such as Vancouver's Zero Emission Building Plan and BC’s Energy Step Code have jumpstarted a $3.3 billion local opportunity for local manufacturers, installers, and suppliers of green building materials. The environmental ethos and world-renowned recognition of Vancouver as a “green” city has also translated into a US$31.7 billion brand. In a global economy where cities are competing for talent, this is an important quality and advantage that Vancouver possesses to help it attract the best and brightest to Vancouver’s thriving economy in all sectors.

Over 130 organisations participated as EAC members, directly advising the staff working groups on finalizing targets and preparing GCAP. Each of the 10 GCAP goals convened an EAC, which ranged from 10-35 members representing key stakeholders from the academic, business and industry, non-profit, and government sectors. The public engagement process consisted of two phases. Phase 1 (June – October 2010) focused on collecting ideas from the community about how GCAP goals and targets might be achieved. Phase 2 (December 2010 – March 2011) focused on collecting feedback on the draft actions to finalize the plans. The objectives for the process were: to hear and respond to the perspectives of different communities within Vancouver; to build constituency and garner support for the City to take bold and innovative measures to achieve GCAP goals; to build a sense of ownership from community members and stakeholders for taking action to achieve goals; to build partnerships with organizations for implementation; and to test new and innovative engagement methods and tools. End the end, more than 35,000 people participated in the development of the Greenest City Action Plan, in face-to-face workshops and events, online, and through social media. More than 9,500 people, most of them residents of Vancouver, actively added their ideas, insights, and feedback to help determine the best path to achieve this plan.
