PrintLocal Government Institutions
Local governments and institutions include: municipal governments, boards of education, District Health Boards and a variety of other special purpose institutions. These local government institutions provide services needed by their residents such as land use planning, roads, and utilities, public transit, economic development promotion, education, health services, and recreation. Many own and administer buildings and facilities.
As a result, local governments are in a position to communicate with local people about climate change issues, undertake emission reduction activities and deal with local impact of climate on their communities.A number of Saskatchewan municipalities have undertaken specific programs related to climate change.
Visit your local municipality's website to find out more about their current climate change initiatives.
