BC Climate Leadership Plan

Tue, October 4, 2016 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM CENTRE FOR INTERACTIVE RESEARCH ON SUSTAINABILITY (CIRS). Free. Is the new BC Climate Leadership Plan plan leading or lagging?

To many, the plan is a long awaited update to BC’s 2008 climate strategies, outlining 21 key actions in all major sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Yet academics, environmental groups, and clean energy think tanks indicate the new plan lacks ambition and, with “few hard targets, explicit regulation or funding numbers,” won’t enable BC to achieve its legislated greenhouse gas reduction targets.
