Based on new comprehensive modeling, Alberta’s draft methane regulations will reduce far less harmful methane pollution than if Alberta’s oil and gas producers followed the federal methane regulations enacted earlier this year by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC). This analysis is based on emissions estimates and models provided directly by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC).

The primary goal of this modeling study is to estimate the modeled impacts on U.S. air quality and human health, of emissions associated with the Oil and Gas (O&G) sector.

The Arctic is unraveling. Since the mid-1960s, the annual mean surface temperature over Arctic land areas has increased by more than two degrees Celsius, almost twice the global average rate of change and the environmental “tipping point” for international climate change negotiations.
