Climate Montreal Partnership: putting our expertise to work to help reduce GHGs

As a leader in the ecological transition within the real estate and construction sectors, Pomerleau was invited to participate along with other industry leaders in the Climate Montreal Partnership Building working group, to develop tools that can help the construction sector lower the carbon footprint of future building projects.

Using carbon sinks as a lever for transition

Accelerating the environmental transition also means investing in the conservation and creation of natural carbon sinks. When we invest in the conservation and management of natural systems that absorb more carbon from the atmosphere than they release, we can contri- bute directly to a Net Zero world.

$40,000 in natural carbon sinks In 2022, Pomerleau will invest $40,000 in natural carbon sinks to raise awareness about the need to protect them, and to increase the capa- city of natural environments to absorb carbon from the atmosphere. Pomerleau is aware that this sum is minimal and that it will increase over time. A new target is being set for 2030.
