Lanark County Climate Action

Residential Climate Survey

Thank you in advance for responding to our survey!

Lanark Country is developing a Climate Action Plan (CAP) for the whole of Lanark County and Smiths Falls. It will provide an Action Plan for the next 10 years for both County municipal operations (municipal buildings and garages, street lighting, municipal trucks, water and waste) as well as the community as a whole (homes, cottages, businesses, transportation, energy use, agriculture, etc.).

Our local governments control or influence 50% - half - of our Greenhouse Gas emissions through their decisions on buildings, how we transport ourselves, how far apart we are from our homes, work, schools and commercial and civil centres, how we produce food and how we deal with waste. The CAP will identify ways to minimize Greenhouse Gas (GHG) generation.

Climate Network Lanark needs your help to understand where we should best focus our efforts in our contributions to the CAP. 

After completing the survey, you will have the option to enter your name and email address into a draw for one of 4 prizes. 

  • A personal garden consultation with Ed Lawrence
  • A ride in his Tesla Electric Vehicle with Smiths Falls Mayor Shawn Pankow
  • A delicious and climate conscious local food taster pack from Nature's Apprentice Farms and Maplelane Farms 
  • Vegetarian dinner for 2 at a local restaurant - contributed by an anonymous donor
