Reality Check: Carbon Emissions Inventory in the GTHA

Total carbon emissions in the GTHA increased 5.2% in 2018, reaching 55.5 Mt. This report is a stark reality check, showing that since the completion of the coal phase out, emissions are slowly increasing across all regions and nearly all sources. Our per capita natural gas emissions are increasing even when adjusted for population growth and weather.
