Home to iconic landmarks such as the Sydney Opera House and Bondi Beach, the City of Sydney is located on Australia’s east coast and is a global leader in urban sustainability and climate action. Attracting millions of visitors each year, Sydney is one of Australia’s most culturally diverse and dynamic urban centres. Committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2035, the City has already reduced operational emissions by 70%—ahead of its 2030 target. Sydney’s Energy Master Plan aims to derive 100% of its electricity, heating, and cooling from renewable sources by 2030. Its Greening Sydney strategy targets a 40% urban canopy cover by 2050, incorporating green roofs, walls, and streetscape gardening. The City also enhances biodiversity through artificial reefs and living sea walls in Sydney Harbour, bolstering resilience to sea-level rise.
