This will exceed the Global Methane Pledge target of 30 percent that Canada signed on to last year. The Methane Strategy outlines how Canada will: implement measures across sectors of the economy, including oil and gas, to reduce the largest sources of methane emissions; strengthen the clean technology sector and provide tools to industry to achieve cost-effective methane emission reductions while creating good-paying jobs; advance scientific knowledge and technical capacity to improve methane detection, measurement, and reporting; meet international climate targets under the Paris Agreement and Global Methane Pledge; and solidify its global leadership and provide funding, tools, and best practices for other countries to achieve emissions reductions.","Energy service demand reduction and resource efficiency",,"In force",2022,2022,2030,,Mitigation,https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/news/2022/09/canada-releases-faster-and-further-canadas-methane-strategy2.html,06/01/2023,,,,,
