Working with companies which emit CO2

There is a significant amount of political pressure on the Canadian government and more specifically on the BC provincial government to take on a leadership role in the reduction of green house gases. This motivation has taken the form of carbon taxes and credits. It is these pressures and more that have motivated CO2 gas emittors to take a serious look at what options they have for reducing their carbon emissions.

The most significant motivator for the Canadian government will be from public pressure to reverse the effects of climate change.

Public Opinion Polls (Montreal Gazette - Feb 23, 2011)

• “A survey released Wednesday found that 80 per cent of Canadians polled said they believe there is solid evidence of global warming, compared to 58 per cent of Americans.”


• “73 per cent of Canadians would be willing to pay at least $50 a year in extra energy costs so more renewable energy could be produced.”


• “Republicans and Conservatives — less likely to believe in climate change.”


• “the majority of Canadians believe that both the federal and provincial governments should take actions to reduce global warming.”

We want to work with BC's largest CO2 emittors, to clean up all their CO2 emissions, not just some of it. Algae requires a great deal of CO2 to grow (1.5 times algae mass). We believe that this can be both an environmentally responsible action as well as an economicly attractive one for both Pacific Rim BioEnergy and the emittor.
