We are recognized around the world, other than in Canada, for what the Saskatchewan government working together with the Canadian government did. This project has been in existence since the year 2000. It's been running for 21 years, so it's been studied.
With regard to getting recognition, first of all, I think we have to be recognized within our own country for the work that is being done in the oil and gas sector, not just in Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia and Manitoba, but also in Quebec and Ontario. We need the opportunity to understand that decarbonization and for the world to see how responsibly developed our products are. That has not been celebrated. We are continually challenged as to the makeup of the products that we do bring to market. I think it has to be. The only way we can succeed is by being recognized across all of our provinces. We talked about that. We're going to advance. We hear some of our presenters talk about how we're going to have to build vehicles. Those come from steel and from mining projects. We're building cars, machinery, ships, concrete and buildings. We're going to have to continue to advance on that.
These are all mined materials, and mining takes energy. We can lead in these things. Plastics, bottles, tubing, paint, makeup—all of these come from products that are below the surface of the earth.
What we're going to have to do is recognize that there is a responsibility that we take seriously in Canada. If there's no recognition and there's no demonstration of measurable outcomes, we're not going to have success.
When I talk about cradle to grave, we're talking about mined materials. When we're moving to renewables, those materials require huge amounts of energy, so we're going to have to understand that and recognize that this is an energy transition. It's not a start-and-stop exercise. We talk about hydrogen. We're involved in a couple of hydrogen projects ourselves.
The offtake of the CO2 is massive, as large as it is on anything else, on any other products. We're going to have to make sure that we understand and respect where we're at. This is where I talk about this energy transition taking an extended period of time and about being practical and logical and moving through efficiently as we move through time.
