Summary
The document outlines a strategic balance between 'safe bets' and 'risky bets' for Canada's emission reductions, projecting that safe bets will dominate by 2030, while risky bets could provide up to two-thirds of reductions by 2050.
Key insights
- Low-risk solutions are expected to provide the majority of emission reductions by 2030, with at least two-thirds coming from 'safe bets' and a maximum of one-third from 'risky bets'.
- The proportion of emission reductions could shift by 2050; if risky bets prove cost-effective and scalable, they could account for two-thirds of the reductions needed for carbon neutrality.
- The document references the Paris Agreement target of reducing emissions to 30% below 2005 levels and a broader goal of carbon neutrality.
