"Canada's 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan sets out an ambitious and achievable roadmap for Canada to reach its emissions reduction target of 40-45% below 2005 levels by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050. A key next step on this path is tackling methane emissions, which is one of the lowest cost opportunities to make important progress in the short-term on our climate goals. Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas (GHG) that is responsible for roughly 30% of global warming since pre-industrial times. Lowering methane emissions is critical to limiting the rise of near-term global temperatures and the related impacts, such as increased wildfires, more severe storms and increased drought. The good news is that significant progress has already been made to reduce methane emissions in Canada. This strategy builds on that progress with plans to further reduce methane in oil and gas, agriculture and at landfill sites. With the methane reduction measures and supporting programs outlined in this strategy – current and planned – we estimate that Canada will be able to reduce domestic methane emissions by more than 35% by 2030, compared to 2020"--Executive summary, page 1.
