Tired of the gloom and doom message of mainstream environmentalism, Transition Toronto focusses on what's possible locally.

A new competition has Toronto companies going head-to-head not on the bottom line, but to cut down on carbon emissions. Since its launch in June, Race to Reduce has signed on more than 70 of the city's largest companies, representing 45-million square feet of office space. Competition chair Bob Gallant says it starts with building trust between landlords and tenants.
