Community Climate Hubs are groups of local residents organizing for stronger, more equitable climate action in their cities and towns. Each Hub is unique — shaped by the people, priorities, and opportunities of the communities they’re rooted in. Whether you're looking to join an existing Hub or start one where you live, you’re in the right place.

WHERE TO FIND A HUB

TURN CLIMATE CONCERN
INTO
LOCAL AMBITION

LOCAL-LEVEL ACTION

International agreements set targets, but progress happens locally. Community hubs drive resident-led action at the municipal level—where climate risks and solution benefits are most tangible. Organizing locally ensures climate goals deliver ambitious, equitable results right in our neighborhoods.

BUILT BY THE COMMUNITY

No one knows a city better than the people who live in it. By bringing together residents, Climate Reality Leaders, and grassroots advocates, our hubs build collective power—ensuring everyone has a voice in shaping a sustainable, resilient future.

The Community Climate Hub Program, launched by Climate Reality Project Canada in 2017, is a nationwide initiative that builds and supports local, community-led groups (Hubs!) working to raise climate ambition at the municipal level.

Hub members are driving the ship: identifying priorities, building local support, and pushing for change.


Climate Reality Canada keeps the wind in the sails: offering resources, connection, and amplification to help local action thrive.

Canadian municipalities make up almost half of the country's greenhouse gas emissions! Municipalities govern key systems like transportation, housing, and waste — all of which significantly impact both our carbon emissions and the equity of our communities.

With teams of support behind you, and a network made up of those who have successfully started their own Hubs, your Hub can learn to become a force of change in your community. 

Community Climate Hubs are a vehicle for change—they're groups of engaged local residents who come together to push for stronger, more equitable climate policy in their city or town. These Hubs are rooted in the understanding that local governments, often overlooked, have a critical role to play in climate action. They're designed to be autonomous and grassroots—steered by the people who live in the communities they’re rooted in.

Hub members drive the ship by identifying priorities, building local support, and pushing for change. Climate Reality Project Canada is here to keep the wind in the sails—offering resources, connection, and momentum to help local action thrive.

WHAT DO HUBS DO?

Help unify voices around a shared vision for decarbonization and advance their communities along the milestone process set out by the Federation of Canadian Municipalities

Obtain municipal commitments to net zero emissions by 2050 or sooner and ensure communities are on track to reaching their target without leaving anyone behind 

Ensure that cities not only work to decarbonize, but do so in a way that champions building equitable, climate-resilient communities in the process

The Climate Reality Project Canada’s office is located on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg Nations. Our organization honours, recognizes and respects these Nations as the traditional stewards of the lands and waters on which we are today.
