More in this Section...

Richmond Hill’s commitment to becoming a more environmentally sustainable community includes many programs, policies and plans for managing our natural resources, protecting our health, and addressing the impacts of climate change. By coordinating this work through the initiatives below, Richmond Hill continues to demonstrate leadership in corporate environmental responsibility.  

For information about Richmond Hill’s climate change programs, visit RichmondHill.ca/ResilientRH.

Environmental Policy

Richmond Hill's Environmental Policy includes our vision statement, mission and commitment to becoming a greener community. The Policy provides a foundation for detailed goals and actions outlined in our Environment Strategy and Environmental Management System. 

Environment Strategy

Richmond Hill's Environment Strategy, "Greening the Hill: Our Community, Our Future", was approved by Council in 2014.  It reflects our community's concern about protecting the environment and provides guidance on managing our resources accordingly. The Strategy outlines our environmental challenges and opportunities, and describes how we can improve the sustainability of our community over a 15-year timeframe. 

Learn more about how the Strategy is being updated and how you can contribute.

Environmental Scorecard

The City’s first Environmental Scorecard is now available. The Scorecard provides a high-level snapshot of environmental progress from the first five years of Environment Strategy implementation (2015-2019). The Scorecard fulfils the Council commitment contained within the Environment Strategy to develop and publish an Environmental Scorecard at regular intervals.

Explore Richmond Hill’s first Environmental Scorecard.

Environmental Management System

Richmond Hill has an Environmental Management System (EMS), registered under the international ISO 14001 Standard since 2006. The EMS helps us to identify and understand our environmental impacts, and how we can best manage and reduce these impacts. The System also demonstrates our leadership and commitment to corporate environmental responsibility.
