This book explores the complex challenges and innovative solutions to governing climate change mitigation in three major North American cities: New York City, Los Angeles, and Toronto. These cities have all adopted ambitious climate change mitigation targets, but they face different challenges and have developed different approaches to achieving their goals.

The book draws on a variety of research methods, including interviews with city officials, climate change experts, and community leaders; analysis of city policies and programs; and case studies of specific climate change mitigation projects.

The book finds that while there is no one-size-fits-all approach to governing climate change mitigation, there are some key factors that contribute to successful climate change mitigation efforts. These factors include:

• Strong political leadership
• A clear and ambitious climate change mitigation target
• A comprehensive climate change mitigation plan
• Adequate funding and resources
• Public support

The book also finds that cities can play a leadership role in climate change mitigation by:

• Adopting ambitious climate change mitigation targets
• Developing and implementing comprehensive climate change mitigation plans
• Providing financial and technical assistance to businesses and residents to help them reduce their greenhouse gas emissions
• Educating the public about climate change and the importance of climate change mitigation
• Advocating for national and international climate change policies

This book is a valuable resource for city officials, climate change experts, and community leaders who are working to address the challenges of climate change mitigation.
