The provincial government is extending the second phase of public consultation on B.C.’s new Climate Leadership Plan.

The consultation phase will be extended by two weeks, until Apr. 8, 2016. This extension will give citizens and stakeholders additional time to provide their thoughts on climate action ideas, values and priorities for British Columbia's Climate Leadership Plan, to be released later this spring.

Feedback received to date has touched on a variety of climate topics, with the most popular being transportation, clean technology and clean energy, and carbon pricing. Other prominent areas of discussion include buildings and communities as well as climate adaptation.

Along with the public engagement, government continues to carry out sector-specific industry consultation on the next phase of climate action in the province. All feedback received will be reviewed and considered in the development of the final plan.
