TVO and The Agenda are partnering with the Waterloo Global Science Initiative to examine how Canada is aligning itself with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals - a set of 17 goals aiming to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all by 2030. The first of three SDG-focused episodes looks at how some Ontario cities are evolving to become more inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. Then, what are some key steps to be taken in the next few decades to reverse climate change?

The Agenda welcomes Julie Gelfand, the federal environment commissioner, to discuss her cross-country audit of climate change planning, emissions reductions, and the likelihood of Canada meeting any of its targets.
