Scientists call for dramatic steps to curb emissions

"A group of climate scientists is calling for Ottawa to take dramatic
steps to curb emissions, including halting the advance of the oil sands
while it weighs new greenhouse gas regulations for the energy sector.
Canada’s climate performance has come under renewed scrutiny as other
major powers consider new regulatory measures. Last week, state media
reported that China intends to introduce a modest carbon tax, while the
White House and U.S. State Department have signalled a renewed focus on
greenhouse gas legislation. At the same time, observers believe new
Canadian regulations and progress on climate change would give the Obama
administration political cover to approve the Keystone XL pipeline
project."
