A survey from a clean energy think-tank says Alberta has done little to implement its plan to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith speaks at an announcement in Edmonton, Monday, Nov. 27, 2023. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Jason Franson. EDMONTON ...
Recent interest in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions has driven the need to better quantify such emissions from waste management processes. The Biosolids Emissions Assessment Model (BEAM) is a tool that quantifies GHG emissions in biosolids management. The objective of this study was to determine the...

Ottawa's proposed cap on greenhouse gas emissions from the oilpatch punishes Alberta's main industry and the province will take the measures to court, Premier Danielle Smith said Thursday. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says Ottawa's proposed cap on greenhouse gas emissions from the...
In this study, changes in greenhouse gas emissions from converting a given area from dryland into irrigated acreage in Alberta and Saskatchewan were estimated. A systems approach was used in which changes in crop production mix are considered in terms of induced livestock production, increased input...
“Circular Economy Challenge funding will facilitate our company to meet zero-waste and sustainability goals for our food processing facility in Calgary,” said Scott Brookshaw, Executive Vice President, Sparks Eggs, Division of Golden Valley Foods Ltd. “W...
Alberta has implemented the Specified Gas Emitters Regulation to address the issue of growing greenhouse gas emissions. The regulation allows large emitting facilities to achieve emission reduction targets using market-based compliance instruments. The goal of this analysis is twofold: (1) Overview ...
Methane is a greenhouse gas with a warming potential at least 25 times that of carbon dioxide, and scientists estimate it is responsible for about one-third of observed global warming to date. Cutting methane emissions from oil and gas is increasingly being pursued by governments as a fast and...
The new draft regulations, released on Monday afternoon, bore a close resemblanceto a regulatory frameworkpublished by the federal government last year. One notable difference is that the new regulations use the term “greenhouse gas pollution” in place of “greenhouse gas emissions.” ...
Back in 2008, Edmonton's city council aimed to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2020. Unfortunately, the city is far from this target with its emissions continuing to grow; in 2015, emissions of CO2 reached a five-year high of 353,870 t (Stolte, 2016, para. 2). That said, both city...
