The Net Zero Committee’s mandate is to work towards making the Richmond Hill United Church a net zero greenhouse gas emitter by the year 2030.  They are doing this by working to increase engagement in the community on the climate crisis and by decreasing greenhouse gas emissions in the personal lives of church members and those emitted by the use of the church building.

 

Meets twice a year, virtually.  Next meeting is May 26th, 2026, 7-8 p.m.

Welcomes new members (see contact information below).

Works with Climate Action Richmond Hill and with the Climate Owls at Rose Town Apartments.
