Publications

Ecology Ottawa has produced a variety of publications, including::

• Greenprints: Policy proposals for a sustainable Ottawa

These two-page policy papers identify concrete steps that the City of Ottawa can take to reduce waste, fight pollution and climate change, limit urban sprawl, and otherwise decrease our city's negative environmental impacts. They call on city council to bring Ottawa up to the standards of other cities by implementing solutions that have proven to be successful elsewhere.

• Ottawa Council Watch

This annual report card reveals where Ottawa's mayor and city councillors stand when it comes to voting on matters of environmental significance.

• Reports and fact sheets
  

These reports and fact sheets highlight some of the key environmental challenges facing our city, such as growing greenhouse gas emissions and unsustainable transportation patterns, and explore possible solutions to these crises.

• The Ecology of Ottawa

The Ecology of Ottawa is a booklet and website that show the basics of how our city’s ecosystems work and how we are connected to them through our use of water, energy, and other resources.
