British Columbia has some of the most stringent and complex GHG regulations in Canada, with a reporting program that functions almost entirely differently from the federal Greenhouse gas Reporting Program (GHGRP). All facilities registered as Reporting Operations are required to report greenhouse gas reg...
The article discusses the comparative rating released by David Suzuki Foundation in April 2012 of the provincial and territorial climate change plans of Canada. It states that government policies in British Columbia, Quebec, and Ontario got the highest marks. It says that these provinces performed ...
Cities dominate greenhouse gas emissions. Many have generated self-reported emission inventories, but their value to emissions mitigation depends on their accuracy, which remains untested. Here, we compare self-reported inventories from 48 US cities to independent estimates from the Vulcan carbon dioxide...
By that year, Canada has a target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 511 million tonnes, or 30 per cent below 2005 levels. Canada's environment and climate change minister said without existing federal climate-change policies its modelling shows 2019 emissions would have been 34 million ...
Under the Kyoto Protocol, Canada committed to reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to 6% below 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012. In 2003, Canada’s freight transportation sector contributed to approximately 9.3% of the country’s emissions of 740 million metric tonnes of carbon dioxide (...
OTTAWA, June 8 (Xinhua) -- Canada launched Greenhouse Gas Offset Credit System on Wednesday, a market-based incentive to undertake innovative projects that reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs) by preventing emissions and removing GHGs from the atmosphere. ...
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 ...
Greenhouse gas contributions of agricultural soils and potential mitigation practices in Eastern Canada 来自 Semantic Scholar 喜欢 0 阅读量: 260 作者:EG Gregorich,P Rochette,AJ Vandenbygaart,DA Angers 摘要: Agricultural soils can constitute either a net source or sink of the three principal ...
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...
Canada on June 8 launched a credit system for greenhouse gas offsets, a major part of its plan to cut carbon emissions, starting with a set of rules stipulating how projects can generate tradable credits by capturing gas from landfills. ...
