Abstract

According to a recent report by KPMG International (KPMG, 2022), the success in achieving global and national carbon neutrality targets depends largely on the decisions and actions of cities regarding climate risk management. Municipal administrations' efforts to manage carbon neutrality can have a significant ripple effect on both the population and the private sector. Unfortunately, few cities have implemented systematic processes to measure carbon emissions, primarily due to a lack of resources. A CIRANO report (Campbell et al., 2025) proposes the development of a carbon emissions dashboard that reflects the activities directly related to the management of a city. This tool could prove highly valuable for any municipal organization seeking to identify the most appropriate measures to reduce its emissions. → Read the article in PERSPECTIVES → Read the complete research report Selon un récent rapport de KPMG International (KPMG, 2022), le succès dans l’atteinte des cibles mondiales et nationales de carboneutralité repose en grande partie sur les décisions et actions des villes en matière de gestion des risques climatiques. La gestion de la carboneutralité par les administrations municipales peut avoir un effet d’entraînement important sur la population et le secteur privé en général. Malheureusement, peu de villes ont mis en place des processus systématiques de mesure des émissions de carbone, faute de ressources. Un rapport CIRANO (Campbell et coll. 2025) propose un tableau de bord des émissions de carbone qui découlent des activités propres à la gestion d’une ville. Cet outil pourrait s’avérer être d’une grande valeur pour tout organisme municipal qui désire déterminer les mesures les plus appropriées à prendre pour réduire ses émissions. → Lire l'article dans la revue PERSPECTIVES → Lire le rapport de projet complet
