The relentless rise of fossil fuel burning in Canada is leaving climate-safe energy alternatives — and climate hope — far behind. And columnist Barry Saxifrage has the charts to prove it.
The 2020 emissions data is finally out. Here's how Canada and many of its peers did on their Copenhagen Accord targets. (Spoiler alert: Europeans and Americans, yes. Canadians, not so much.)
But in an audit of Ottawa's "greening government" strategy, environment commissioner Jerry DeMarco said Canada still isn't reporting on its indirect emissions, nor does it include Crown corporations in its reporting or planning.
It should be clear by now that anyone expecting North America’s oil companies to fund or finance the energy transition are going to be sorely disappointed, writes columnist Max Fawcett.
Banking with a financial institution that invests in fossil fuels doesn't necessarily mean your money is going directly toward these ventures, but your business with the bank still supports a fossil fuel financier. You can, however, make sure your own investments aren't tied to polluting sources of energy.
Green Party MPs and environmental groups say a financial relief program for onshore oil and gas companies should be scrapped after a scathing report by Canada’s climate watchdog was released Thursday.
Canada has a dismal record on meeting its promises to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but carbon taxes are a promising development, writes David Tindall.
"Only by taking collective action will we halt global warming and lessen its economic, social, and environmental impacts," says Melita Gabrič, ambassador of the European Union to Canada.
