When it comes to climate change, our actions matter. But some actions are more impactful than others in limiting climate change.

Read the full post to learn more about which actions help limit climate change, ranging from good, to better and to best actions.

These actions are even more effective when we work as a community, supporting groups and programs that make it easier for everyone to adopt climate-friendly behaviours.

This post was made in collaboration with the Government of Canada, to help better understand how Canadians’ think, feel and act on climate change.
