Resources

Carbon Talks resources provide the starting point for an informed, in-depth, structured dialogue around issues relating to the low-carbon economy. Dialogue reports present the recommendations and thoughts that emerge from Carbon Talks invitational dialogue sessions on issues ranging from district energy to transportation policy - dialogues framed by corresponding discussion guides. Timelines are a way of tracking the history of certain low-carbon issues in Canada from green municipal policy in Vancouver to the growth of the energy biomass sector.
