And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Sunday, April 06, 2008. India’s nuclear expansion: climate change and the Great Game. Climate change and nuclear weapons proliferation are the biggest dangers facing humanity. The two issues are inextricably and dramatically linked in the U.S.-India civilian nuclear deal. And has been barred from the international civilian nuclear trade ever since. Canada appears ready to support the deal. If and when it...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Sunday, November 26, 2006. Emission caps in America: will Bush embrace Kyoto? Federal efforts, like the McCain-Lieberman draft Senate proposal on carbon caps, have not met with the same success. S David Crane, accept that emission caps in some form are inevitable. The question is, will these be hard or soft caps? Ie, how hard will the federal government push emitters? My prediction: a carbon market will come...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Thursday, May 01, 2008. Ontario power output, emissions drop in April: what will summer bring? Last winter’s massive snowfalls, as I mentioned on April 22. Did Ontario a big favour by melting thereby adding to the province’s hydroelectric output. Hydro provided around a third of our electricity in the month of April; it usually provides about 25 percent. According to Electric Power Statistics. Ottawa, Ontari...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Monday, April 28, 2008. GNEP in doubt: implications for Canada’s nuclear plans. Canada joined the Global Nuclear Energy Partnership (GNEP) in late 2007, under somewhat ambiguous terms. The GNEP is a U.S.-led international effort to promote nuclear power while ensuring strict control over the proliferation-sensitive parts of the nuclear fuel cycle. Not necessarily. With last week’s announcement that the U...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Tuesday, April 22, 2008. Winter pays big power dividend: Ontario emissions plummet as snowmelt jacks hydro output. Like many others, I cursed last winter’s massive snow dumps when I was driving, and blessed them when I was skiing. How has this affected the emissions from the provincial electricity system? As opposed to totals that went above 139,000 tonnes in March. Reduced demand plays a part in that, but s...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Sunday, October 29, 2006. Coal-based power generator contemplates acquiring nuclear, IGCC plant. In my September 14 post. I predicted that coal-based generating companies operating in carbon trading areas would begin acquiring nuclear assets as a way of hedging against carbon prices. Platts Commodity News quotes an NRG Energy. Official as saying the company (which operates in the RGGI. Of course, a carbon ma...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Tuesday, June 27, 2006. Made in Canada Kyoto plan takes shape. Stephen Harper’s Kyoto dilemma (see my June 18 post) might be transforming into a glorious electoral opportunity, thanks to an initiative coming from the Prime Minister’s favourite province. Why is this an opportunity for Harper? The beauty of this (for Harper at least) is that it is totally optional: Bechard’s proposal could be tweaked so that i...

And their implications for environmental and economic policy in Canada and the rest of the world. Monday, July 31, 2006. Harper’s Kyoto dilemma, part II. Now the Harper Conservatives are grappling with the same basic problem. Alberta emits by far the most greenhouse gases per capita; Quebec among the least. Alberta if you listen to its political and business elite hates Kyoto. Quebec, with its gigantic ultra-low-emitting hydroelectric capacity loves it. But in another way, it seems a futile attempt to re...
