Towards A Low Carbon Future at UTM
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. We are committed to doing our part and taking action.
The Climate Positive Plan outlines UTM's plan to becoming climate positive. This Plan supersedes the Low-Carbon Action Plan (2019-2024) (LCAP), reducing emissions by 39 per cent by 2030, and achieving climate positive by 2050.
It also outlines the transformational infrastructure change in the way we consume, distribute, and produce electricity.

Both the City of Mississauga and the Region of Peel have declared climate change emergencies, recognizing that climate change is a threat to our communities and way of life.
The City of Mississauga’s Climate Change Action Plan outlines the path to both mitigate and adapt to climate change. The city’s targets are a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, and 80% reduction by 2050, below 1990 levels.
