Human-induced climate change, through the emission of greenhouse gases, may result in a significant negative impact on Earth. Canada is one of the largest per capita emitters of greenhouse gas, generating 720 m
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are currently at the crux of political, environmental, technological, and cultural discussions due to climate change. A drastic reduction of GHG emissions is needed in order to mitigate potentially catastrophic climate change impacts. Thus, thoroughly understanding emission...
Canada is responsible for less than two percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, but it is one of the highest emitters per capita. One of the world's top oil and gas producers, Canada has missed all its interim carbon emission targets. Emissions finally started to fall in recent years....

The second Sankey diagram (from p. 27 in the HEC document) is a summary of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (in French: ‘émissions de gaz à effet de serre’ short: GES) in Québec in 2012. Given the information from the above energy diagram, where Québec domestic energy production is...
As a top-10 global greenhouse gas emitter and one of the highest per capita emitters in the world, Canada is "contributing to the climate crisis, and taking a growing toll on human rights around the globe," the report adds. Despite a new federal emissions reduction...
We determine the potential of forests and the forest sector to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by changes in management practices and wood use for two regions within Canada’s managed forest from 2018 to 2050. Our modeling frameworks include the
The Canadian government reports only carbon dioxide emitted in Canada. It does not count the greenhouse gas emissions produced when those fossil fuels are exported and burned somewhere else. "It allows countries — big producers of oil and gas, like Canada — to completely abd...
