City of Toronto

The City of Toronto, a public administration and defence services provider based in Canada, reported approximately 15,500 kg CO2e in total Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions for 2022. This figure includes approximately 8,525 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 5,425 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 1,550 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. In 2021, the organisation's total emissions were approximately 14,800 kg CO2e, though a breakdown by scope is not available for that year.

The City of Toronto has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net-zero emissions by 2040. This aligns with the TransformTO Net Zero Strategy (TT NZS), which seeks to reduce community-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 65% by 2030 (from a 2022 baseline for Scope 1 emissions). An earlier target also called for an 80% reduction in Toronto-wide GHG emissions by 2050 from 1990 levels. For its corporate operations, the City Council has set a target of a 65% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions below 2008 levels by 2030. Additionally, the recommended scenario in the Net-Zero Existing Buildings Strategy aims for a 25% reduction over the Business-as-Usual Plan by 2050, acknowledging that a 65% reduction by 2030 and net zero by 2040 (compared to 2020 global emissions) aligns with IPCC recommendations.

In 2025, a project at Toronto Western Hospital is projected to reduce CO2 output by 8,400,000 kg CO2e.
