New Quebec Gas Pipeline, LNG Terminal Would Emit 1.8 Billion Tonnes Over 25 Years – The Energy Mix
Quebec Premier François Legault “has repeatedly indicated he is favourable to the project, claiming among other things that it will help reduce emissions globally by facilitating exports of LNG, which emits fewer emissions than coal,” CBC writes. “That claim has been contested by large numbers of academics, including economists and scientists,” who place the climate impact of the project at the equivalent of a year of tailpipe emissions from 382 million cars.
