Introduction

The Local Government Climate Action Program (the Program or LGCAP) aims to catalyze the efficient
flow of financial resources, data and knowledge between Modern Treaty Nations, local governments,
and the Provincial Government to allow for cost effective, impactful, locally implemented climate action.
For more information about the Program you can refer to the website.

What is climate action?

For the purposes of this program, a climate initiative or action is one that reduces greenhouse gas
(GHG) emissions (mitigation) and/or strengthens resilience to the impacts of climate change
(adaptation). This includes (but is not limited to): climate-related hazards; integrating climate change
measures into policies, strategies, planning and investments; improving education; raising awareness of
climate change causes and solutions; increasing human and institutional capacity with respect to climate
change mitigation and adaptation, impact reduction and early warning systems.

Information collected will:

e Highlight local government and Modern Treaty Nation climate leadership;

e Profile action by including local government and Modern Treaty Nation emissions, resilience and
climate action performance data in the annual Climate Change Accountability Report, LGCAP
Summary Report and on the Program's public facing website;

e Help inform policy development and monitor progress on achieving provincial and local climate
objectives; and

e Support provincial efforts to better collaborate with and enable communities to advance climate
action.

The survey was informed by:

e Feedback from local governments, Modern Treaty Nations, external and ministerial partners;
e National and international GHG reporting protocols; and
e The CDP (formerly Carbon Disclosure Project, a global non-financial disclosure system).
