Increase in GHG Emissions in 2018

May 27, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

New data shows that Ontario’s greenhouse gas emissions spiked in 2018, after declining for a decade before that. What happened?

While Covid-19 has likely caused a significant decrease in greenhouse gas emissions, we know the structural issues that caused emissions to rise in 2018 continue to exists. Going back to business as usual will not be an option as emissions would continue to get worse.

What happened and how can we prevent this trend from continuing?
