Created in 2021, Canada's Net-Zero Advisory Body is a permanent advisory group.
Our job is to listen to Canadians and provide independent advice on the most likely pathways for Canada to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
But there’s much more to our work than that, we:
- Explore near-term actions and key building blocks.
- Listen to science, Indigenous Knowledge, and local perspectives.
- Draw on existing and emerging research, analysis, and technical expertise.
- Identify research and engagement priorities to guide our work.
- Lead meaningful national conversations.
- Consider economic costs and opportunities, environmental benefits, contributions to inclusivity and well-being, and technological readiness and requirements.
We share our advice through a public annual report to the federal Minister of Environment and Climate Change.
