Message from Bonnie Crombie, Mayor of Mississauga and Municipal Spokesperson for the Earth Day campaign.

Bonnie Crombie

“The City of Mississauga is committed to decreasing our carbon footprint and safeguarding our environment for families and future generations to enjoy. We took the lead and declared a climate emergency, introducing our very own Climate Change Action Plan that will invest significant resources over the next 10 years. This will help us meet our goal of reducing our emissions by 40 percent in the next decade and 80 percent by 2050, with an aspirational goal of becoming a net zero community. This is an ambitious plan but we know that climate change is happening and we need to take action. I would like to invite all Canadian municipalities to get involved this Earth Day and make a difference by joining us on the journey of creating a healthier tomorrow.”
