Release date: 2014-09-24 - 7. Measuring ecosystem goods and services in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 16-201-X201300011875Description:
The article "Measuring ecosystem goods and services in Canada" presents preliminary results achieved through a two-year interdepartmental project to develop experimental ecosystem accounts and the required statistical infrastructure. It provides an overview of ecosystem accounting and valuation and presents several measures of the quantity and quality of ecosystems and ecosystem goods and services (EGS). These measures focus on land cover, human landscape modification, ecosystem potential of the boreal forest, biomass extraction, marine and coastal EGS, and wetland EGS. The report also includes a case study on the Thousand Islands National Park exploring monetary valuation of EGS and concludes with a research agenda for future work on this topic.
Release date: 2013-11-29 - Articles and reports: 16-002-X200800410750Geography: CanadaDescription: This study focuses on six environmental behaviours at the household level: use of reduced volume toilets; use of low-flow showerheads; use of compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL); recycling; composting; and lowering temperatures. In 2006, almost half of Canadian households were very active across this range of environmental behaviours.Release date: 2008-12-09
- 9. Defining bioproducts: a daunting challenge ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20060039534Geography: CanadaDescription:
Bioproducts play an important role in the search for solutions to declining reserves of oil, increasing costs of oil extraction, increasing oil prices and increasing greenhouse gas (GHG) concentration. They also offer opportunities for rural economic development and diversification for farmers. This article summarizes ongoing work towards improving our understanding of the bioproduct concepts and their definitions.
