Denying Canada’s environmental truths
// November 12th, 2009 // Comments Off // In The News
From the Toronto Star. By Clare Demerse, associate director of the Pembina Institute’s climate change program.
To understand the challenge of tackling climate change in Canada, picture a 10-year old boy.
We’ll call him “Johnny,” but you can go with “Stephen” if you prefer.
Although he’s a smart kid, Johnny gets into trouble for not starting his climate homework until the last second. Often he’s too busy playing in the oil-sands box to clean his room, so he hides everything under the bed and hopes no one notices. And while the big kids are headed to Clean Energy University, Johnny won’t have a chance of getting in unless he improves his D grade in global warming.
Track Countries on their Climate Targets
// November 11th, 2009 // Comments Off // Miscellaneous
A new website, climateactiontracker.org provides an up- to-date assessment of commitments and actions proposed by individual countries for greenhouse gas emission reductions in preparation for the UNFCCC conference in Copenhagen, December 2009.
The site enables the public to track the emission commitments and actions proposed by countries for a Copenhagen climate agreement. It allows users to evaluate progress towards limiting global temperature increase to 2°C or 1.5°C.
The website is a joint effort of Ecofys and Climate Analytics with the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impacts Research (PIK) funded by the European Climate Foundation.
