Carbon budgeting is being explored within municipalities to add accountability to their Climate Emergency commitments. Municipal carbon budgeting often downscales international science-based targets to a community level to show what that community's climate budget is, the scale of action needed to achieve reduction targets and the progress the community is making towards its GHG reduction target.
Maurya Braun from the City of Edmonton and Karine Hertzberg and Catrin Robertsen from the City of Oslo shared their approaches to advancing a climate budget for their respective communities.
