24 Aug 2010

CAP would like to thank the Ontario Ministry of the Environment for its generosity in financially supporting the participation of the Clean Air Partnership in the City of Toronto’s climate change adaptation planning process. [...] The Ontario Ministry of the Environment provided funding for Jennifer Penney, the Director of Research at the Clean Air Partnership to support the City’s Adaptation Steering Committee in the development of their strategy. [...] The Chair and one of the Vice-Chairs reviewed and commented on proposals for the adaptation strategy and the public consultation process. [...] The organizational chart on the next page shows the relationship of these bodies to the development and implementation of the climate change adaptation strategy. [...] The City of Toronto also invited a number of climate change impacts and adaptation experts to act as an Expert Panel to provide advice to the City on the development of its strategy.
