12:00 pm Local companies complete innovative climate action business program Mayor Lois E. Jackson and Delta Council wish to congratulate the following thirteen local businesses for being trailblazers in their fields, and taking a lead in building a resilient green economy:
The Corporation of Delta teamed up with Climate Smart and Metro Vancouver to deliver a groundbreaking training program for small/medium-sized enterprises in Delta. This program cultivates business leadership, action and innovation around climate change throughout the Lower Mainland. By training with Climate Smart, these participating organizations learned to measure their greenhouse gas emissions; identify their best opportunities for reduction; and developed the internal capacity and analytical tools for continued climate action and business improvement. Nearly 300 Climate Smart "alumni" organizations have demonstrated that good business and environmental practices are not mutually exclusive: they go hand-in-hand when doing business in today's economic landscape. Participants expect to improve competitiveness, reduce their carbon footprint, and expand their networks simply by looking at their businesses through a "green lens".
Staff wish to thank the Tilbury Eco-Industrial Partnership and the Delta Chamber of Commerce for their role in making this program a success. For more information, contact Climate Action & Environment at cae@corp.delta.bc.ca |
