Description

In 2002, Alberta signaled its commitment to manage climate change and greenhouse gas emissions in the province by passing the Climate Change and Emissions Management Act. One of the first actions taken under the new legislation was to develop a mandatory reporting program for large industrial emitters in Alberta. Beginning in 2004, large industrial emitters in the province were required to submit an annual report on their previous year’s greenhouse gas emissions. The province has now collected data for six consecutive reporting periods, including the 2009 emissions year.
