Arc'teryx, Climate Smart, Innergex Renewable Energy, the Insurance Bureau of Canada, and Vancity, in association with the Pembina Institute, presented the first Businesses for B.C.'s Clean Economy luncheon.
We heard updates from a senior official with the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy, and the Climate Solutions and Clean Growth Advisory Council on B.C.'s forthcoming climate plan.
Participants had an opportunity to network with business leaders in various sectors, and learn about how strong climate policy stimulates clean innovation and growth and helps secure a resilient economy in B.C.
