Question No. 140 Ms. Kirsty Duncan: With respect to development of the oil sands, its impacts on the environment and surrounding communities, and the economic effects of these impacts: (a) what, if any, steps has the government taken to establish air emission limits or air quality standards to achieve the World Health Organization’s Air Quality Guidelines to protect air quality and human health; (b) what, if any, steps has the government’s sector-by-sector approach taken to regulate carbon emissions in the oil sands to ensure the oil sands industry makes appropriate reductions in its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to contribute to Canada’s GHG emission reduction goal of 17% below the 2005 level; (c) what, if any, studies has the governmen ...[+++]t undertaken to examine the effect of the oil sands expansion on (i) GHG emissions, (ii) Canada’s ability to meet its GHG emission reduction goals, (iii) Canada’s contribution to the goal of staying below a 2°C increase in global average surface temperature, relative to the pre-industrial level, as articulated at the G8 meeting in L’Aquila, Italy and at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change negotiations through the Copenhagen Accord in December 2009 and the Cancun Agreements in December 2010, (iv) the full suite of sustainability criteria, including environmental, economic and social sustainability, and (v) what were the results of any studies identified in (c)(i), (c)(ii), (c)(iii), and (c)(iv); (d) what, if any, studies has the government undertaken to examine (i) the scope of oil sands expansion if the oil sands sector is not required to deliver its proportional share of GHG reductions, (ii) the impacts such a decision would have on other sectors’ allowable GHG emissions, (iii) whether other sectors of the Canadian economy would have to do more than their proportional share to reduce emissions, (iv) what were the results of any studies identified in (d)(i), (d)(ii), and (d)(iii); (e) what, if any, studies ...

6. Takes the view that the European Union must step up its efforts in the climate and energy sector so as to contribute to the establishment of a fully operational energy market whilst meeting future energy challenges; believes that, in order to achieve the EU’s climate and energy objectives, a new approach is necessary in terms of applying adequate minimum duty rates on CO2 emissions and on energy content and avoiding overlaps with emission quotas trading; stresses the importance of encouraging local and regional authorities to exp ...[+++]loit ICTs in their energy efficiency and environmental plans and believes that this application will significantly increase business opportunities at local and regional level;

33. Calls for more ambitious climate and energy headline targets: reducing CO2 emissions by 40 per cent by 2020 and by 80 per cent by 2050 as against 1990 and increasing the share of renewables in electricity supply to 35 per cent by 2020; proposes to set specific emission reduction targets for the transport sector, including aviation and shipping; calls for setting additional targets on the reduction of resource use and waste prevention; insists in this context on the need to launch a “Biodiversity Rescue Strategy” to restore ecosystems and on "ecosystems proofing" of sectoral policies such as agriculture and also transport, energy and spatial planning; asks for a profound revision of the Common Agricultural Policy in order to promote ...[+++]food sovereignty in each country, reducing food imports, giving priority to local production and local consumption as tools to tackle climate change;

And the second criterion is that “each individual use is compatible with the land use plan of the port and has taken into account the land use plan of any adjacent local government”.
