Homes and buildings make up 30 to 50% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the capital region of British Columbia – mostly a result of the use of oil and natural gas for space and water heating and the low level of efficiency of homes in our region.
The Bring It Home 4 Climate (Bring it Home) program was created to engage and support homeowners and organizations who are interested in being agents of change by reducing the energy consumption and carbon footprint of their homes and by taking steps to motivate other homeowners to do the same.
This program asks that you Bring It Home. Bring what you can. And think about what you can do next for the climate.
