Pages : 194
Book Description
Reducing our own GHG emissions means that Canada is facing a transition to a low emissions society -- a transition that will be driven by environmental, economic and social factors. We have a substantial national interest in understanding and anticipating the nature and scope of that change and in proactively seeking to manage our response, with respect to both mitigation and adaptation measures, in a way that benefits Canada. This Advisory Report addresses the issue of how to mitigate potential effects of climate change, through deep emission reductions.

The Cost of Climate Policy
Author: Mark Jaccard
Publisher: UBC Press
ISBN: 9780774809511
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is a major environmental challenge facing the world. We all want to reduce the risks of global warming, but how much will this cost? What will it mean on a personal, business, or community level? And what policy responses should we expect from our governments? The Cost of Climate Policy sheds light on these pressing issues. The authors look at the challenges of estimating the costs of greenhouse gas emission reduction to help readers understand how different definitions of costs and different assumptions about technological and economic evolution affect the estimates that are so hotly debated today. Using Canada as their focal point, the authors look specifically at the impact of emission reduction policies on energy prices, technology options, and lifestyle choices. The book concludes with concrete proposals for overcoming the constraints of environmental policy making and the high initial costs of action. Policy makers need to know as much as possible about the costs of taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As indispensable as this book will be to policy analysts, it is also an important primer for a wider range of readers interested in the economic implications of climate change.

Climate Change Plan for Canada
Author: Canada
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
This plan document proposes both short-term action & a long-term perspective to address national climate change objectives without placing an unreasonable burden on any region of Canada. The first section reviews the scientific evidence about climate change and Canada's international commitments to addressing this issue. The second section sets out Canada's approach to climate change, including the key principles that guide the national climate change plan and the steps under way or needed to achieve targeted reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Section three outlines proposed steps in emission reduction in the following areas: transportation, buildings, industry, renewable energy & clean fuels, small & medium size enterprises and fugitive emissions, agriculture, forestry & landfills, and international emissions. Section four discusses how individual Canadians, communities, and governments can contribute to emissions reductions. Section five outlines how to improve understanding of climate change & prepare to adapt. The final section discusses plan reporting & accountability. The annex summarizes climate change modelling & analysis activity, describes the analytic framework developed to evaluate climate change policy options, and reviews & interprets the results of the most recent round of modelling.
