carbon dioxide emissions

A new analysis draws on public health studies that conclude that for every 4,434 metric tonnes of CO2 produced, one person globally will die.

When the invasive swine root through soils around the world, they release as much carbon dioxide as a million cars. Good luck getting rid of them.

Annual methane emissions from abandoned oil and gas wells might be underestimated by as much as 150 per cent in Canada and 20 per cent in the U.S., according to a recent study from McGill University.

Shell Canada is letting carbon-conscious customers get their two cents in for the environment while filling up at one of its 1,400 stations across Canada.

The end of the COVID-19 pandemic may be a long way off, but analysts are already looking ahead to how Canada could hasten its recovery and position itself for a low-carbon economy.

Budget cutting in response to the twin challenges of COVID-19 demand destruction and low oil prices mean the world's oil and gas industry will likely spend less on renewable energy going forward.

As a means to address climate change, it’s a complete cop-out.

Study indicates human fossil methane emissions have been underestimated by up to 40%

“If you don’t think of both public health and your CO2 budget at the same time, you’re not going to make very optimal decisions.”

It’s been nearly four years since leaked documents revealed Exxon Mobil Corp. understood that fossil fuel emissions caused the planet to warm before it began funding a Big Tobacco-style misinformation campaign to discredit climate science. Now the world’s largest publicly traded oil company will face public questions for the first time over its role in creating a climate crisis on Earth.

The bodies of the tiny organisms lock away enormous amounts of carbon dioxide, and they’re in danger.

A federal utility board voted on Thursday, February 14, 2019, to close a coal-fired power plant in Kentucky, rejecting pleas from President Donald Trump and U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and handing the coal industry a defeat in its backyard.

More than half the food produced in Canada is wasted and the average kitchen tosses out hundreds of dollars worth of edibles every year, says a study researchers are calling the first of its kind.

In addition to pricing pollution and taxing fossil fuels, one group wants stringent emissions targets enshrined in Canadian law.

In 2015, several markers like land and ocean temperatures, sea level and atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations broke records, setting new benchmarks for climate change's planetary impact.
