Whats being done about GHGs?
Upstream oil and gas companies representing 95 per cent of national production participate in Canada’s Voluntary Challenge and Registry (VCR) program, which encourages energy efficiency and other measures to reduce GHG emissions. While initiatives implemented since the early-1990s have reduced the upstream industry’s energy intensity the amount of energy used per unit of production by about one per cent per year, total GHG emissions have increased as production has risen.
