June 2018. Government of Canada. The Atmospheric Fund collaborated with the Pembina Institute, other environmental organizations, and industry partners to highlight the necessity of including Indirect Land Use Change (ILUC) when calculating the carbon intensity of fuels under the Clean Fuel Standard.
We have called on Environment Minister Catherine McKenna to reconsider its current position on ILUC and include a calculation methodology in the first iteration of the Clean Fuel Standard. These changes will help advance Canada as a global leader in emissions reductions and encourage further investment in low carbon and sustainable fuel sources.
