The tax has long been criticized by the opposition Conservative Party, which has vowed to &#8220;axe the tax&#8221; if it wins power, but support has recently eroded even among the policy&#8217;s former backers. The carbon tax is intended to help Canada cut emissions of climate-warming carbon dioxide by 40%-45% below 2005 levels by 2030. The next election will be held by October 2025 and polls show Prime Minister Justin Trudeau&#8217;s Liberals will lose badly to the Conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>Even if Ottawa scraps its carbon tax that consumers pay on gasoline and other fuels, Canada could reach the 2030 goal by leaning on other policies, said Mark Zacharias, executive director at think-tank Clean Energy Canada. The portion of carbon tax that applies to industrial sites such as oil sands mines and cement plants is less contentious than the consumer tax. The industrial tax will play a larger role in cutting emissions, along with a proposed oil-and-gas emissions cap and regulations to reduce methane pollution, Zacharias said.<\/p>\n<p>The consumer carbon tax applies to much of Canada&#8217;s emissions from transportation and buildings, but government rebates for electric-vehicle purchases and building retrofits are also helping trim emissions from those sectors, said Dale Beugin, the climate institute&#8217;s executive vice president.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/sustainability\/climate-energy\/canada-may-reach-2030-emissions-goal-without-unpopular-carbon-tax-2024-09-19\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-600\/\">Canada may reach 2030 emissions goal without unpopular carbon tax<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1544,12020,703,575],"class_list":["post-133845","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-canada","tag-carbon-tax","tag-emissions","tag-environmental-news-en"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133845","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=133845"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/133845\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=133845"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=133845"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=133845"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
