Where to find the Badges
Experience the Climate Badges in a more interactive way and keep up with new badge challenges and engagement opportunities on the HalifACT Hub.
Learn, act and connect
The municipality's Environment & Climate Change team and the Ecology Action Centre worked with local artists to create the Climate Commitment Badges because we believe that everyone has a role to play in climate action.
The HalifACT Climate Commitment Badges set achievable goals that let you improve the well-being of your family, friends and community, while also working to secure a stable climate for future generations.
