Canadian environmental sustainability indicators
Abstract
This first annual report presents environmental indicators for water quality,
air quality, and greenhouse gas emissions. The water indicator documents the distribution
of water quality at selected sites across Canada. The air indicator reports national
and regional trends in ground-level ozone, a key component of smog. The greenhouse
gas indicator describes the trend in emissions and the contribution to the trend
by energy production, energy consumption and other factors. The indicators are
intended to assist those in government responsible for developing policy and measuring
performance, while also helping individual Canadians who want to know more about
the trends in their environment.
