Resolutions, Ordinances, or Other Climate Legislation
This assessment is based on one piece of legislation. The City of Kamloops has adopted a Community Climate Action Plan that sets targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2030 and 80% by 2050 compared to 2007 levels. The plan focuses on eight main areas: low-carbon development, transportation, buildings, renewable energy, and circular economy practices—which means reducing waste by reusing and recycling materials. The city expects these actions to cut annual emissions by over 208,000 metric tons of CO2 equivalent by 2050 and projects additional benefits like cleaner air and water, healthier urban green spaces, and new jobs in construction and renewable energy. The plan includes specific timelines for action, a budget framework, and annual reporting to track progress.

This overview is based on six climate and sustainability reports from the City of Kamloops spanning 2016-2022. The documents include progress reports, climate action plans, and energy management strategies focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving building energy efficiency, expanding active transportation infrastructure like the North-South Bicycle Corridor, transitioning to zero-emissions vehicles, implementing waste diversion programs including curbside organic collection, and developing climate resilience measures for floods and wildfires. Notable initiatives include the BC Energy Step Code for new construction, a Climate Action Levy generating $24 million over ten years, and corporate carbon neutrality efforts targeting municipal facilities and fleet operations.
