More B.C. businesses and organizations are receiving funding to provide innovative solutions to recycle and reuse plastic while supporting jobs for people throughout British Columbia.

From Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Infrastructure Canada:

People and wildlife in coastal communities of British Columbia will soon benefit from a cleaner coast because of new funding from the Province.

People and communities are benefiting from reduced emissions, cleaner air and more jobs in the clean economy thanks to investments in new, clean technology in local industries.

Provincial support for Youth Climate Corps B.C. will give more young people the training and jobs needed to help their communities reduce emissions and adapt to the changing climate.

New members of B.C.’s Climate Solutions Council will support the Province’s work to transition to a clean economy with good, sustainable jobs for British Columbians.

Local governments and Modern Treaty Nations will be able to begin work on larger climate-action projects, protecting communities for the next generation of British Columbians.

New support for Youth Climate Corps B.C. means more young people in British Columbia can train for careers that will help their communities reduce emissions and adapt to the changing climate.

B.C.’s updated carbon pricing system for large industry will give companies incentives to lower pollution and create more good, clean jobs for British Columbians.
