One of the most significant sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canada is the buildings sector, with over 30% of national energy end-use occurring in buildings. Energy use must be addressed to reduce emissions from the buildings sector, as nearly 70% of all Canada's energy used ...
Greenhouse Gas Emissions Intensity Factors for Marginal Electricity Generation in Canada - Farhat, Ugursal - 2010Farhat, A., Ugursal, I. Greenhouse gas emission intensity factors for marginal electricity generation in Canada. Int. J. Energy Res 2010;34:1309-27....
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canadian agroforestry systems, we conducted a laboratory incubation study to assess N2O, CO2 and CH4 emissions from soils in response to land use (forestland vs. cropland) and agroforestry system type (hedgerow vs. shelterbelt) in central Alberta, Canada. Emissi...
Canada plans reduction in greenhouse-gas emissions.Discusses an October, 2000 announcement by the Canadian government that the country will cut its greenhouse gas emissions. Description of the plan, which will bring the country one-third of the way towards the target agreed upon at a 1990 climate...
In Canada, the fuel used for marginal electricity generation varies from province to province and from hour to hour. To estimate the reduction in GHG emissions due to reducing electricity generation at the margin, it is necessary to have information on the fuel mix used to generate the marginal...
Canada's largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters are industrial companies, responsible for over 60 percent of Canada's total emissions. It is of major public interest to examine how they are responding to that responsibility on a company-specific basis. We have therefore extracted company-specific ...

CanadaGreenhouse 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 ...
IBM’s total operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions totaled 364,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO₂e) in 2023, a 15 percent reduction compared to the previous year.
Results indicate that irrigated agricultural crop production is responsible for 1.65 Mt of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2E) GHG emissions in Canada. This is about six percent of the Canadian total GHG emissions from crop production. On a per hectare basis, irrigated crop production emits almost ...
