Telecommunications play a critical role in the climate change discussion. It’s why companies like TELUS are invited to sit at the strategy table with wildfire experts during increasingly severe fire seasons. With climate change fuelling increasingly severe wildfires across Canada, TELUS has been building specialized expertise to ensure vital lines of communication remain open so that impacted residents and emergency providers are connected to reliable networks when and where they are needed the most. By necessity, that expertise has now expanded to seasonal flooding.
TELUS is also looking to the future; specifically, supporting Canada in reaching its Paris climate targets through digital technology.
A new report “Clean Connection: How Digitiation Can Support Canada’s Path to Net-Zero” developed by Toronto Metropolitan University in partnership with 17 cross-industry organizations, and sponsored by TELUS, has found that digital tech — missing from Canada’s climate action plan — is a virtually untapped resource and the missing link in Canada’s journey toward net-zero. The report lays out 10 recommendations that industry actors and policy-makers should take to realize the benefits that connectivity can have on lowering emissions.
The public conversation surrounding climate change policy completely misses this data-backed reality.
