INTRODUCTION
Actions in the Integrated Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Management Plan enable policies and programs to support Metro Vancouver jurisdictions, businesses and residents in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. In 2019, Metro Vancouver initiated development of a new Clean Air Plan in conjunction with Climate 2050 that will advance measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the region.
VISION AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES
Comprehensive – Take climate action across Metro Vancouver functions and support action across sectors and communities. Inclusive & Collaborative – Involve Metro Vancouver members, strategic partners and local communities in the planning and implementation of the Climate 2050 strategy.
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Issue Area Roadmaps
Strategic Framework
Climate Action Projects
Reporting and Communication
Climate 2050 is organized around ten subject areas, intended to provide logical groupings of climate goals, strategies and actions. The Climate 2050 Roadmaps will build on climate actions already adopted in the existing Metro Vancouver Management Plans, while proposing new directions for consideration in future Management Plans.
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Energy utilities in the region (eg BC Hydro and Fortis BC) are responsible for energy supply and distribution. They are responsible for programs and infrastructure investments that will increase the supply of low-carbon energy to the region.
REGIONAL CLIMATE IMPACTS AND GREENHOUSE GASES
Metro Vancouver prepares periodic emissions inventories to quantify greenhouse gas emissions from the region's various sources. Transportation and buildings continue to account for the largest share of greenhouse gas emissions in Metro Vancouver's emissions inventory.
HOW CAN WE ACHIEVE AN 80% GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) REDUCTION BY 2050?
Reaching the 80% reduction target by 2050 (relative to 2007 levels) will require unprecedented reductions in greenhouse gas emissions in most sectors, with some sectors becoming essentially “zero emissions”. The graph below illustrates one possible scenario, showing how the region could achieve its greenhouse gas reduction target by 2050.
HOW CAN WE CREATE A CARBON NEUTRAL REGION BY 2050?
Many sectors need to become "zero emissions" and any remaining greenhouse gas emissions will need to be balanced with ecological and technological approaches to carbon removal. The chart below illustrates how a carbon neutral region can be achieved with a combination of deep emissions reductions across all sectors and little carbon removal.
TOWARDS 2050: NEXT STEPS
Once complete, the Climate 2050 strategy will provide a comprehensive view of the path to a low-carbon, resilient region, Metro Vancouver's contribution, and how Metro Vancouver is tracking our progress over time. Metro Vancouver aims to demonstrate bold leadership in responding to climate change, working closely with member jurisdictions, the public, stakeholders and partners.
CLIMATE 2050
Over the next two years, Metro Vancouver will engage the public and stakeholders to support the above activities at key stages of the roadmap development process, in accordance with Metro Vancouver's Public Engagement Policy and Guide. The intention is to draw on the interest and expertise of the region's residents and businesses.

Issue Areas
There are health co-benefits from some of the climate actions that reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The actions we take in this region have a significant influence on the life cycle greenhouse gas emissions associated with the goods consumed in the region.
GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE DATA AND TRENDS
Global Climate Change Data and Trends
Climate change-related risks from extreme weather events are already considered moderate to high with 1°C warming, and these risks are expected to increase as temperatures continue to rise. Less snow and a lack of soil moisture increase the likelihood and spread of wildfires and dry spells.
Section E 7.1
The Board's 2019-2022 Strategic Plan will provide guidance to Metro Vancouver staff in their work and planning. The board's strategic plan reflects the regional priorities that will shape Metro Vancouver's 30-year financial framework.
