Canada’s remaining vast deposits of bitumen will have to stay in the ground in pretty much any credible low-carbon scenario. How to make the transition, while building new opportunities for fossil workers and communities, is one of the biggest climate challenges the country faces.READMORE

What if one of the pathways to a post-carbon future is right beneath our feet? Decarbonization is the first step in curbing emissions that cause climate change. But natural climate solutions like carbon farming help draw down carbon dioxide already overheating the atmosphere. Getting it right begins with distinguishing between carbon sequestration methods that work and the more speculative, sometimes dangerous carbon capture plans for fossil industries.READMORE

Cities are on the front line of climate impacts. And provinces, states, and regions have a lot of say in the way practical climate solutions play out at the local level.
