In a recent post on Policy Note, Marc Lee points out that the BC government's recent decision to close down one big GHG producer — Burrard Thermal plant in Vancouver — won't reduce total emissions, since the government is allowing new oil and gas facilities to be built that emit even more GHGs. Marc's bold proposition: an immediate moratorium on all new oil and gas development — unless accompanied by carbon capture and storage.
The CCPA is Canada’s leading organization for articulating progressive, positive social policy reform. Ever constructive and independent, the CCPA’s respected voice has helped produce substantial results in the movement for true democracy and equality of opportunity that all Canadians can support.
