Mantle Climate is Canada’s leading climate strategy and risk management consultancy for the built environment.
We partner with real estate owners and developers, product and material manufacturers, municipalities, and community-serving organizations to align business and operational success with climate leadership. Specializing in sustainable design and construction, climate risk and resilience, and strategy and climate disclosures, our multidisciplinary team delivers practical solutions to help our clients stay ahead in a low-carbon, climate-resilient future.
In short, we build climate leaders.
Advisory Service Areas
Sustainable Design & Construction: Cut emissions, manage risk, and improve project performance. We deliver whole-building life-cycle assessments, embodied carbon analysis, circularity and material-reuse strategies, environmental product declarations (EPDs), and green building certification management, including LEED, Fitwel, and the Zero Carbon Building Standard.
Climate Risk & Resilience Planning: Understand and manage climate risks across your assets and operations. We identify the hazards that matter to a given site, evaluate exposure and vulnerability at portfolio and asset scale, and translate the findings into resilience plans that can be built and funded.
Strategy & Climate Disclosure: Build actionable climate strategies and report progress credibly. This covers corporate emissions inventories (including scopes 1, 2, and 3), target-setting and transition planning, and climate communications aligned with leading global frameworks.
The Mantle Climate Team
Previous Work
- YMCA of Greater Toronto’s Climate Resilience Strategy Sets an Example — A decade-long advisory partnership: emissions down 54% against a 2008 baseline, LEED Platinum or Gold now the standard for new facilities, and centres being transformed into community climate resilience hubs.
- Steelcon Gains a Competitive Boost From Reducing Embodied Carbon by 49% — One supply chain change cut the embodied carbon of Steelcon’s signature SIN Beam by 49%, at roughly the same cost, backed by the company’s first EPD.
- Sharing the load: How Ontario can increase electricity capacity while minimizing the environmental impact — Modelling with MaRS finds Ontario could see 1.5 GW of new data centre load by 2035, approaching 3 GW under high growth, and sets out how the province can absorb it responsibly.
