Transportation is critical to being able to move towards net zero. It accounts for almost 25% of Canada's total greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing pollution from transportation is essential to fighting climate change, but also to supporting healthy communities. Through the low-carbon economy fund, we have invested $7.6 million towards the largest global deployment to date of battery electric buses and chargers in Brampton, Ontario.
By deploying these kinds of investments, we are helping with the public transit system, improving livability within our urban environments and cutting climate pollution.
