Wed, November 23, 2016 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM CENTRE FOR INTERACTIVE RESEARCH ON SUSTAINABILITY (CIRS). Free. Pizza lunch provided.. How does the City of Vancouver’s greenhouse gas emissions compare to other cities across Canada? What accounts for differences amongst cities’ emission? Which cities perform the best, and why?

Join us to hear answers to these questions and more from UBC’s Dr. Sumeet Gulati, Associate Professor, Environmental and Resource Economics and researcher Juan Fercovic, Master of Food and Resource Economics. Pizza included.

Together, Sumeet and Juan will offer a presentation on their research comparing average household greenhouse gas emissions across Canadian cities, including past emissions trends, alongside strategies cities can take to reduce household greenhouse gas emissions through the future.
