They rocketed past the Americans decades ago. Now they are set to blow past even the Saudis with a massive new LNG industry – in charts.

Canadian wildfire has quadrupled since the 1990s. That’s releasing billions of tonnes of CO2. The climate beast is waking up. When will we?

We’ve slammed on the brakes of EVs and started driving the wrong way. That's leaving Canadians even further behind.

Chopping $20 billion off the price of climate-polluting fuels means more pollution and fewer reasons to buy climate solutions. Here's a deep, chart-packed, dive into what just happened.

Fly around, find out.

Canada’s forest is in trouble – and so are we. Chainsaws and fossil fuel burning are draining billions of tonnes of CO2 out of our managed forest and pouring it back into the atmosphere. And the outflow is accelerating.

California’s well-documented climate and fire history lets us see how global warming is cooking up ever more extreme fire conditions — and how the megafires are responding with accelerating frequency and fury — charts.

Canadians are running out of excuses for our sky-high emissions. Not only is the EU cutting emissions as a group, but every one of its 27 member nations (except the tiny island nation of Cyprus) has as well.

Fossil fuel pollution has been searing the golden state into a hot, dry tinderbox. The megafires have followed in accelerating frequency and fury -- charts.

The path to Canada's 2030 climate target has become dizzyingly steep. Here’s a series of charts showing how adrift Canadians are now

Here's how much cheaper it is in major Canadian cities to charge an electric vehicle at home vs buying an equivalent amount of gasoline at the pump…

The “axe the carbon tax” chants are back. This time the claim is that it has driven Canada’s gasoline taxes too high. Does the data support the claim? Barry Saxifrage takes a look at the numbers.

Western Canada has a lot of explaining to do. Canada’s recently released greenhouse gas inventory shows that every western province has increased its climate pollution since 1990.

They’ve been cutting emissions for decades. When are we going to do our fair share?

Fuelling our rising horde of gas-guzzlers in Canada is burning down our nation’s climate promises and our kids’ future.

Five charts show how Canada is running out the clock on climate hope.

Methane is becoming a serious threat to humanity, and Canada’s oil and gas industry is emitting a huge amount of it.

Unrelenting logging and fossil fuel burning have flipped one of the planet’s largest forests from a critical CO2 sink into a surging CO2 source. This year’s climate-fuelled wildfires are the latest acceleration in a multi-decade trend, writes Barry Saxifrage.

The government says yes. But the latest climate pollution numbers seem to tell a different story. Barry Saxifrage breaks it down for us.

One of Canada's fastest-growing sources of emissions is the extreme greenhouse gas leaking from our businesses and homes. Barry Saxifrage takes us on a chart-packed tour of one of our least-known climate threats.
