Riverview C.C. partners with Province of Manitoba in Climate Change Program

Fourteen rural and urban centres, including six neighbourhood organizations, have been selected for funding under a new four-year (2008-2012), Community Led Emissions Reduction pilot program.  The aim of the initiative is to develop projects and incentives that will encourage and support the greatest immediate greenhouse gas emissions reductions and build toward long-term, lasting changes.

Participants may initiate projects or activities in the following areas:
·         waste-reduction measures

·         water-reduction measures

·         transportation measures

·         energy measures
·         green procurement or purchasing choices
·         green landscaping and lawn-care measures 

Grant funding will be available to support this initiative.
