Globe/CP say EnCana, rivals hear B.C. LNG claims flawed

The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday, Oct. 28, edition that a report from the Pembina Institute finds flaws in the British Columbia government's claim that exporting liquefied natural gas is the greatest single step the province can take to fight climate change. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that the government has said shipping LNG from B.C. to Asia would help cut the use of coal, which emits higher greenhouse gas emissions. The report, however, released Monday said only strong climate-change policies will limit the output of emissions, and without those policies, the use of coal and natural gas will increase over the next few decades. Josha MacNab, co-author of the report with Matt Horne, said they have not seen any evidence to support Premier Christy Clark's claim that exporting LNG will cut greenhouse-gas emissions. In fact, she said, their research indicates "these claims are inaccurate." She said, "The reality is that it's actually climate policy, not the production of natural gas, or the availability of natural gas, that will determine our trajectory toward dangerous climate change and the mix of fuels that will avoid this outcome."
