Mining vs. In Situ provides an initial, much-needed comparison of the environmental impacts of oilsands mining and in situ extraction. It draws on the Pembina Institute's two oilsands report cards -- Under-Mining the Environment: The Oilsands Report Card and Drilling Deeper: The In Situ Oilsands Report Card.
The Government of Canada has committed to setting a cap on emissions generated by the oil and gas sector at a pace and scale needed to achieve net-zero by 2050. In this submission, the Pembina Institute provides key principles for setting the oil and gas cap, setting 2025 and 2030 targets, and developing the regulatory pathway to ensure these targets are met or exceeded.
