DESCRIPTION

The Town of Antigonish developed a comprehensive Net-Zero Community Engagement Strategy and Implementation Plan to build capacity for both existing and future green initiatives.

Designed with replication in mind, the plan provides a model that other municipalities can adapt as they pursue their own net-zero goals.
