Figures are estimates. Greenhouse gas emissions are based on their 100-year global warming potential (GWP). The source did not provide a release date and is set as the date of website access.
Canada's biggest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitter in 2022 was the Kearl Oil Sands Project in Alberta. The Imperial Oil and ExxonMobil-owned oil and gas field produced an estimated **** million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCOâ‚‚e) that year. All but two of the ** biggest GHG polluters in Canada were oil and gas field in 2022. These were the Genesee coal-fired power station and Toronto Pearson International Airport. Combined, these ** assets were responsible for an estimated *** ²Ñ³Ù°ä°¿â‚‚e.
