Green Vancouver
We can do a lot to ensure we achieve our Greenest City goals and targets, but there are also limits. That is why we need strong and effective partnerships with all organizations in Vancouver that have a key role in greening the city. This includes other levels of:
- Government
- Non-profit organizations
- Businesses
- Social enterprises
- You
