Climate Centre

Welcome to FirstOntario's Climate Centre

At FirstOntario, we believe that building a strong financial future goes hand-in-hand with caring for the environment. That's why we're committed to reducing our environmental impact and helping our members do the same. Together, we can create meaningful change today and for generations to come.

A shared responsibility: Responding to climate change

Climate change is one of the most significant challenges of our time. Since the 2015 Paris Agreement, countries, businesses, and individuals have been working together to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Success requires a collective effort. Governments, companies, and communities all have a role to play, and FirstOntario is proud to be part of this global movement.

How we can make a difference together

A carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions created by the daily choices we make—from how you heat your home to how you bank. Every small decision can add up to meaningful change. Simple changes can contribute directly to a healthier planet.
