Cochrane - CO₂ Eq. Emissions

Cochrane had 23,547 tonnes of CO₂ eq. emissions from producers emitting over 50 kt in 2018, greatly increasing 115.5% from 10,926 tonnes in 2017. The CH⁴ equivalent segment had the largest decline over last year, decreasing -4.46% to 104.8 tonnes.

Definition: Amount of CO₂ equivalent emissions from facilities emitting over 10kt, as required by Canada's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP). CO₂ equivalent is a term for describing different green house gases (like methane, nitrous oxide, HFCs, etc.) in a common unit. The CO₂ equivalent would signify the amount of CO₂ required to have a equivalent greenhouse effect.
