Canadians have been told time and again by government and industry reps that the country’s vast crown-held forests have huge surplus carbon storage capacity for sequestering the country’s ever-growing volumes of extracted, transported, burned and/or exported oil and gas production. Michael Polanyi, with Nature Canada, joins me for a discussion about his research demonstrating that the government’s own numbers fail to add up and, in fact, support the opposite conclusion - that our forests are and have been net sources of GHG emissions for decades.
This trend must be reversed if Canada is to succeed in meeting its emission reduction targets under the Paris and subsequent UN Climate Agreements.
