Time to electrify our economy for climate change, say senators
By Paul J. Massicotte & Richard Neufeld in Opinion, Energy, Politics | July 4th 2017

Change is sometimes painful, sometimes expensive and often unavoidable. These three characteristics apply to climate change, which is forcing us to rethink our habits.

Indeed, a fully-committed, sweeping behavioural change is needed to mitigate and adapt to climate change, if we are to meet Canada’s 2030 target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 219 megatonnes.

As part of its study on transitioning to a lower-carbon economy, the Senate Committee on Energy, the Environment and Natural Resources released its second interim report on various sectors of Canada’s economy responsible for the bulk of Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions. This report focuses on Canada’s transportation sector, which accounted for 23 per cent (or 171 megatonnes) of our annual emissions in 2014. It addresses road transportation, aviation, rail, marine and urban planning.
