This plan provides details on the proposed goals, timelines, and actions Albertans can take to address the possible effects of climate change. It is designed to provide a practical alternative to the Kyoto Protocol, focussed on a technologically driven rather than a political solution. Core principles of the plan are listed and actions are set out in the following areas: emissions reductions, government leadership, energy conservation, carbon management, technology & innovation, enhancing carbon sinks, and adaptation. The final sections discuss how Alberta's plan might be applied nationally and outline next steps for implementation.
