Canadian fossil fuel production and greenhouse gas emissions compared to predictions following the 2.0°C scenario
<p>This spreadsheet shows the amounts of coal, oil and natural gas produced in Canada from 2010 to 2020 using governmental sources. McGlade and Ekins (2015) proposed quotas for the production of each type of fossil fuel in order to provide a 67% chance to limit warming to 2.0°C by 2100. The proportion of each quota that is already spent is calculated. Emissions targets from 21 scenarios originating from five effort-sharing studies are compared with Canadian 2020 emissions to evaluate the difference. Carbon budgets from 18 scenarios originating from seven studies are compared with Canadian cumulative emissions to evaluate the percentage of the budgets already emitted within the 2010-2050 period. Emissions from five database are used in the calculations.</p>
