US EditionProtesters dressed as sea creatures target Woodside meeting
- The B.C. Government launched an independent review of its CleanBC program in early 2025 to assess its climate policies and emissions targets within the province.
- The review was triggered by population growth, faltering emission reduction efforts, and the province being on track to meet only half of its 2030 climate goals, as outlined in a 2024 agreement with the Green Party.
- Experts Merran Smith and Dan Woynillowicz will lead consultations with First Nations, local governments, industry, and stakeholders to evaluate CleanBC’s effectiveness in reducing emissions and supporting the economy.
- Energy Minister Adrian Dix highlighted that the review's purpose is to refine the plan to better serve the needs of both communities and the economy, ensuring it achieves its intended goals. Meanwhile, interim BC Green leader Jeremy Valeriote stressed the importance of honestly assessing current efforts to identify what is successful and what requires improvement.
- The final report is expected in late fall 2025 and could shape B.C.’s path toward its net-zero 2050 target and improvements in climate action and affordability.
