2022 Montréal Climate Summit

More than 500 people took part in the first Montréal Climate Summit on May 3, organized by the Montréal Climate Partnership (MCP) in collaboration with the City of Montréal. Leaders from the business, philanthropic, political, nonprofit and environmental sectors, as well as students and citizens from all backgrounds, came together to accelerate climate action in the metropolis, while strengthening its resilience. This event demonstrated that the Montréal community is committed to achieving ambitious goals and is deeply concerned about vulnerable populations,
who are the most impacted by climate change.

Open and frank discussions on climate change happened at the Summit. Major commitments from the city’s key players set the ambition right from the start, with engagements from the City of Montréal, Hydro-Québec, Ivanhoé Cambridge, the CHUM, the Public Health Department and Tourism Montréal.

2022 Montréal Climate Summit’s Proceedings

The Montréal Climate Summit’s first edition provided an opportunity to take stock of the work carried out to date in Montréal, and to bring the community together to discuss what remains to be done to reach our climate targets by 2030 and 2050. The Proceedings are intended to be a collective roadmap to achieve them. This document puts together key recommendations, portraits of effective initiatives as well as the desired outcomes for the Summit’s next edition to orient the Montréal community climate actions and assess our collective progresses.
