After the release of the IPCC report in April, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres strongly condemned governments and corporations that are continuing to invest in fossil fuels and develop new fossil fuel projects.Even if Canada ends all federal fossil fuel subsidies, that doesn’t mean there will be no public money going towards these projects – provincial subsidies play a huge role in the fossil fuel industry.
The problem is that, geographically speaking, it’s more costly to produce some oil and gas products in Canada compared to other countries, Donner said, meaning potentially diminishing returns as demand lessens and focus shifts to alternative energy sources.He added that emissions “disproportionately” come from Alberta.
He acknowledged that he is speaking from the bird’s-eye view of someone whose livelihood isn’t affected by these decisions. Instead of separate furnaces and air conditioners, a push for heat pumps or district energy systems could make buildings more prepared for heat waves while lowering emissions, Donner suggested.
“Another approach that that we could use, policy-wise, is to incentivize contractors, building contractors, provide free training, and provide incentives to them,” he said. “Politically, governments have to make decisions on things that they're not going to see the benefits of in the short term. And also, governments have to make decisions that they might not see the benefits of within their jurisdiction.”
It's a scam sooo...
Climate change is a natural occurrence and only god him self can stop it. No matter how much money we throw at it, how many electric cars we drive, how many plastic straws you make away with climate change is still going to happen. Happening sense the world has been turning.
The Sun has always been and will always be the main influence of how the climate reacts. What do you propose is done to change that? Perhaps a solar flare tax🤔
These climate extremists, media and politicians have zero credibility with respect to predictions that have been wrong for over 50 years. They are making bank pushing their hocus pocus fear porn forecasts. Follow the money.
The Trudeau Liberals have governed for nearly 8-years, but have failed to implement the 1 single measure that would’ve substantially eliminated GHG produced by vehicles. Namely gas/electric powered hybrids. In cities, especially in stop & go traffic where the /2
🤣. We contribute 2% If we get to 0% I highly doubt that will save the world. Meanwhile CanadaIsBroken TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada
Trudeau is aligned with his misguiding Globalist elites. He is making money; we are paying.
CC is pure political bullshit.
Not far enough. Why not just exterminate all humans? Kinda seems like its heading that way anyways
There is no 'catastrophic' climate change, and Net Zero is an unattainable farce. This despite the media plugging this nonsense.
Your climate plan is killing the world!! Leave it to lefties, to think, they can fix anything, by throwing TAXPAYERS MONEY at it!! Maybe they should put their money where their mouth is!!! If throwing taxpayers money at something worked!! No one would be homeless, or starving!!
Look at the BIG picture… earth is doomed and there is no way humanity will reverse its destiny
No . lm not homeless yet .
Yes , as long as Hamilton continues to dump raw sewage into Lake Ontario .
If Canada is serious about electrification it needs more core reliable generation both urban and rural and massive mining projects to make avaliable rare metals which face constraints of 100's of years (image), but this is more important than FN drinking water Urban myopia.
Focus on India and China now. We don't owe anyone anything more.
This is Communist TV preparing you to be even poorer. Trudeau is planning to TRIPLE the carbon tax which affects the price of EVERYTHING and does absolutely NOTHING to prevent 'climate change' because climate change is a NATURAL PHENOMENON.
We are an under developed country of 35 million!! Liberals are robbing us blind with this climate bullshit!! Let’s make canada rich so we all can enjoy life!!
It's actually far too aggressive
Too aggressive... Canadians are hurting right now... homeless, hungry, sick. The Trudeau is too busy focusing on climate and the Ukraine while our Canadians need help more than ever. It is pretty sad they are so out of touch...
It’s too aggressive. Next.
This is not a climate plan, this is a tax Canadians out of existence plan. 😳
How much water in the bay could be tapped to help with the heating/cooling of the city. Ocean water (in the Arctic (4C) air temp on land -60C, summer water 4C land +25c. City water converted to circulation of heat as well.
Environmental Cultist near to chill out.
Our plan is to tax people more. Not that I believe that human induced climate change is an emergency, but it does have perks for government.
ctvnews is staffed all the way to the top with members of the climate change death cult. Be wary of these these people. Their advocacy can only end badly for humanity.
FAKE NEWS
We should be doing far more to warm the climate, there's no question
Are you kidding? Aggressive enough?
oh boy. take TheMSMJournalistChallenge FreeFromWEF
In 1931 it was a snowless winter. And then for years after it was normal. Stop pushing this horseshit
Yesterday in Ottawa…sound the alarm….50 years ago
If we stopped every car, plane, train, boat etc we would make less than one percentage of difference. Yet here we are charging more for gas to accomplish nothing. Sounds about left!
We received the same dire warning in the 70’s too. Just stop We’re not buying into your fear mongering anymore.
To the dipstick tweeting for you better find a new job soon, the msm is done.
I did not vote in a climate alarmist and do not approve of Trudeau.
“As 2023 kicks off, is Canada driving off a cliff quickly enough?”
Now that were done with Covid...onto the next scam: climate change !
CTV Logic: Maybe if Trudeau charges $1000 a ton then the weather will be nice..🤡🤡🤡
I noticed lots of Canadian advertising on FOX news, I think they know that most people don’t watch CBC, Global or CTV fake news anymore, FOX isn’t perfect but it’s better than the others
Let's give trust fund baby Justin all our money and he can give us food stamps and coupons.
CTV: “humanity is firmly on track toward an unlivable world,”
The Liberals haven’t met a single climate change target yet. Maybe taxing Canadians to death & making us poorer won’t actually change the weather after all. 🤪
