Climate, Environment & Sustainability

The theme of climate, environment, and sustainability emerges as an urgent call to address the global climate emergency and drive just systems transitions. Taking an interdisciplinary approach that coalesces across a variety of disciplines, including natural sciences, engineering, policy, law, and social sciences, TMU researchers are modelling and exploring the consequences of climate change and other environmental impacts on people and ecosystems by tracking harmful pollutants and developing innovative solutions. Our researchers are leading groundbreaking initiatives in green wastewater management, phasing out greenhouse gas emissions across Canada, and integrating cutting-edge technologies for carbon-neutral buildings. We are pioneering solutions that promote advanced energy storage, smart grids, and the electrification of transportation to facilitate the clean and sustainable transition of energy and transportation sectors. We are developing climate-neutral, net-zero solutions, including advancements in a range of engineering technologies, to shape a more sustainable future.
