CBC Carbon Footprint Webinar

Ce webinaire se déroulera en anglais. Les changements auront uniquement un impact sur les productions de la CBC et non sur celles de Radio-Canada.

As of January 3rd, 2022, CBC will be requiring completion and delivery of a carbon footprint on all original Canadian productions from independent producers with budgets over $400,000

• Press release about the changes.

DOC has invited CBC’s Environmental Sustainability Lead to guide our members through CBC’s new Green Initiatives on February 10th 2022 at 1pm ET. They will be your contact for any questions about completing or complying with the CBC’s green initiatives, so this is a great opportunity to hear from them directly and ask any questions.

Some useful tools from CBC ahead of our session:
