What are Canada's large cities doing to encourage low-carbon choices for personal transportation? Canada's Coolest Cities sets out to answer this question through case studies of Calgary, Edmonton, Montreal, Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver.
The study found that Canada's six largest urban areas are making efforts to reduce greenhouse gas pollution, but must do more to promote green urban design and low-carbon transportation choices. While the cities have clear targets for fighting climate change, the majority of population growth is occurring in low-density suburbs, where people need to travel further and are less likely to walk, bike or take transit.
