Environment committee  Someone who used to advise your party, as well as other NDP parties in this country, has said in a public interview that.... When asked what people would remember of our government, he said that it's the first government to ever take climate change seriously in the history

Environment committee  As you know very well, Mr. Deltell, the fight against climate change requires an international effort. There is no answer or solution to climate change if we do not work together, all of us, at the international level. Roughly speaking, the G20 countries account for about 80

Environment committee  Yes, it was the notice of motion from March 19 that the committee order the production of “Environment and Climate Change Canada's provincial-territorial computable general equilibrium model”, with a whole bunch of technical stuff in it.

Environment committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. The modelling is available and demonstrates that pollution pricing is working. Surely, the Conservatives wouldn't be moving this motion if they didn't believe that climate change existed or that the emissions are coming down. Perhaps this is progress

Environment committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you to all of our witnesses and experts for attending today. This is a really remarkable panel. My question is related to water scarcity and climate change. As the weather changes and as the climate warms, and as we've seen in southwestern Ontario

Environment committee   impact on our natural environment and on climate change. PFAS are the worst of both. They're invisible, they have a really negative impact and they're much more difficult to clean up. They may be as hard to clean up as CO2 is to remove from the atmosphere. Do you have any

Environment committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'd like to start with the environment commissioner. In your opening remarks, you mentioned excessive nutrients. I know you have a study coming up in 2024 on fertilizer emissions, but you also mentioned the coordination between Environment and Climate

Environment committee  I'm glad to see that you're keeping an eye on our upcoming reports. We disclose on our website what's coming in the next couple of rounds of reports, including this spring's, which is about agriculture and climate change mitigation. That's the focus of that report, although

Environment committee  , including agriculture. All I can say is to please stay tuned for our spring report on agriculture and climate change. We do look at the trends in emissions in that sector. It's not as important a sector in terms of total emissions saved, for example, compared to oil and gas

Environment committee  Okay. Thank you, Mr. Chair. I would like to follow up with Mr. Moffet on an answer he gave a while ago about the methodological differences between Environment and Climate Change Canada and the Parliamentary Budget Officer. Mr. Moffet, if I understood you correctly, your

Environment committee  I don't think our model draws a straight line between global temperatures and our GDP. It is an economy-wide, computable general equilibrium model that can estimate the GDP impacts of various issues, including climate change or any new measure, such as the carbon price

Environment committee  , is that carbon pricing has and will continue to reduce emissions, which will have the effect of reducing increases in the adverse effects of climate change.

Environment committee  Is an adverse effect of climate change global warming?

Environment committee  Yes. We shared this analysis globally. There is a fairly well-established methodology for estimating the incremental impact of a tonne of greenhouse gas emissions—regardless of where it comes from—on the overall climate and progression of climate change, in terms of whether

Environment committee  . That will be, importantly, relative to impacts on GDP in the absence of having taken action on climate change.
