Ottawa: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that he guarantees that Canada will meet its latest climate goal this time. “This time our plan is very robust which shows how we have to achieve this goal,” he said.

In 1988, Canada set a goal of reducing the leakage of eight different greenhouse gases. Six of them came but could not be completed. The next target is set for 2030. Therefore, Canada will have to bring its greenhouse gas emissions to the same level as 2005, which means reducing this leakage by 55 to 60 percent. This is much bigger than the previous target.

Meeting this new target based on the level of leakage in 2020 would mean that Canada will have to eliminate 23 million tons of gas emissions every year. If calculated directly, it would be equivalent to removing five million cars every 12 months by the end of this decade.

Asked if Canada will achieve this goal, Trudeau said, “Yes, of course.” Trudeau said Canada’s Emissions Reduction Plan, published in March, provides a road map that can achieve this new goal.”
