Supporting Sustainable Choices

Introduction

Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) works to protect and conserve our natural heritage, while ensuring a clean, safe, and sustainable environment for present and future generations. In support of this mandate, an Impact Canada Fellow is leveraging the principles of behavioural insights to better understand how Canadians can reduce plastics waste, take meaningful actions to address climate change, and support the transition to a circular economy. By designing and testing behaviourally-informed interventions, this work will help ECCC deliver policies and programs that effectively encourage sustainable choices from Canadians.
