"Remove the annual emissions limits for industry, established under the output-based pricing system. Every tonne (or liter) emitted will be subject to the same fee regime.
• Include emissions relating to venting and noncompression and non-processing activities in the oil and gas sector.
• Continue the oversight of emissions through the GGIRCA, including the requirement for third-party verification of emissions from industrial polluters.
• End the use of compliance mechanisms and carbon offsets."
Continue with planned increases to the carbon price, by $15/year, and continue to rebate it back to British Columbians
"Continue with planned increases to the price of emissions, by $15 per year. The price is currently $80 per tonne. We will increase this to $95 in 2025, $110 in 2026, $125 in 2027, etc." — BC Greens 2024 Platform, retrieved 2024-10-09
