Are You Up For A Challenge?
Did you know that every Canadian, on average, produces more than 5 tonnes of greenhouse gases every year? Every time we use energy from fossil fuels to power our cars, heat our homes or run our appliances we create greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. Learn how you can reduce your greenhouse gas emissions through simple money saving actions you can take at home and on the road.

To find out your personal yearly greenhouse gas (GHG) emisions check out the Federal Greenhouse Gas Calculator.

You can join the Climate Change Challenge by filling out our on-line pledge form and committ to reduce your greenhouse gas emissions by one tonne -- about 20 per cent. Choose to take actions like using less energy, reducing waste and making smart consumer decisions. You'll save money, protect our climate and help give us cleaner air.
