What does Greenpeace recommend to the federal government to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?
We recommend that Canada respect its Kyoto commitment of a six per cent decrease from 1990 levels, (Kyoto does foresee mechanisms to allow late comers to catch up after 2012) and then move to a deep 30 per cent decrease from 1990 levels by 2020. Only then can Canada rejoin the international community in negotiating a post-Kyoto agreement by 2009, as agreed to in Bali. To get there, we need a huge change in federal climate policy.
