Working with the Executive Director and GEL Advisory Committee this position will lead the growth of a new Green Economy Hub. The Hub Manager is a passionate entrepreneur, a collaborative leader, and deeply committed to shaping a community-led sustainability Hub in London from the ground up.

London businesses will be excited to learn that a Green Economy Hub will soon be launching locally, hosted by the London Environmental Network (LEN). Green Economy London will join six other Green Economy Hubs in Ontario communities that support and celebrate businesses as they set and achieve sustainability goals. To date, businesses in Green Economy Hubs have collectively reduced 59,105 tonnes of GHGs – the equivalent of taking over 12,600 cars off the road for one year – while increasing their profitability.

On September 25, 2018, the Environmental Commissioner of Ontario released her 2018 Greenhouse Gas Progress Report, Climate Action in Ontario: What’s Next?, to the Ontario Legislature.

The report calls on the provincial government to create a climate change law that drives down emissions while funding sensible solutions. A meaningful climate law needs science-based emissions budgets, a legal obligation to stay within those budgets, and credible, transparent progress reporting.
