“The plan aims to cut almost 19 million tonnes of GHG emissions annually from transportation, industry, and buildings by the year 2030,” the Globe and Mail reports. “The rising carbon tax will be used in part to help B.C. industries become global leaders in low-carbon energy and commodities. The building code will be revised to ensure new energy-efficient designs. Infrastructure to support zero-emission vehicles will be expanded. And new power transmission lines will offer heavy polluters the opportunity to convert to cleaner energy for production.” #bcpoli
