Immigration, Emigration and Retention (Under Development)
Background
Introduced in December 2017, the Greening Government Strategy set forth ambitious climate and environmental sustainability commitments for the Government of Canada’s internal operations. The federal government has the opportunity to significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions over the next decades while at the same time foster innovation and clean tech, reduce operating cost, and strengthen the communities in which they operate.
The Greening Government Strategy specifies that federal organizations are responsible for annually reporting an inventory of GHG emissions to the Centre for Greening Government (CGG). The CGG annually discloses all reported organizational GHG inventories and energy use on the Greening Government website and Open Data.
The following page provides guidance and resources federal organizations use to calculate and report organizational GHG inventories in accordance with the Greening Government Strategy. This guidance also supports annually reporting in accordance with the Federal Sustainable Development Strategy (FSDS).
