LR100 is a cleaner fuel source for boilers than other fuel oil replacement options and will reduce air emissions of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter by 50% and sulfur dioxide emissions by nearly 99%. LR100 has the lowest carbon footprint of any commercially available biogenic fuel. Read more here.

And Ontario is, well… Ontario really really likes so-called “natural” gas – a fossil fuel – and plans to use more of it to generate electricity. And now, according to the IESO, emissions from electricity will rise to about 12 MT in 2030, and to over 18 MT in 2040. . of Ontario’s total electricity generation. .

One of the most significant air quality challenges in the Basin is reducing emissions of the ozone precursor nitrogen oxides (NO x ) to meet the ozone standard attainment deadlines. According to the 2016 AQMP, mobile sources contributed about 88% of total NO x emissions in the Basin in 2012.

Fossil-fueled trucks, vans, and buses are a major source of climate-disrupting greenhouse gas emissions and nitrogen oxides (NOx), particulate matter (PM), and hazardous air pollutants that harm public health. In 2021, Quebec adopted a regulation requiring all new school buses to be electric.

Fortunately, I don’t have COPD and I didn’t contract asthma when I was young, perhaps partly because I grew up in a home with an electric range. The study concluded that these childhood asthma cases could have theoretically been prevented by using electric appliances. But other Washingtonians may not be as lucky.
