Book excerpt: A transition to a biomass economy has the potential to reduce heating costs for Yukoners, create new jobs in the local forest and heating industries, reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and move the territory towards sustainable renewable energy and greater energy self-sufficiency. [...] It discusses the challenges and benefits of using biomass energy, identifies goals and principles for its use and proposes actions for developing and promoting this form of heat in the territory. [...] While YG does support the (eventual) use of biomass for electricity production, the primary focus of this strategy is to optimize the use of wood for heat, using modern systems that are clean, efficient and economical. [...] Specifically, the harvesting of biomass for energy production in Yukon will conform to the provisions established in the Forest Resource Management Plans. [...] Although the cost of installing a biomass system is normally higher than the cost of installing an oil system, with a relatively short payback period, the lower cost of wood fuel makes up for the higher installation cost and results in significantly lower heating costs in the long-term.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book states that sustainable development has become an influential discourse worldwide. Climate change is not only an urgent problem, but it is also a fundamental spiritual question concerning social justice and sustainable peace development as well as solidarity among people of various religious backgrounds and different countries. Thus, this global problem must be faced and recognized for future actions and strategies. However, the politics of fear must be replaced with a culture of peace, hope, and compassion, and this urgent problem must be faced with an optimistic attitude and a certain degree of preparedness. Climate change is evident in many forms, such as, for example, the most obvious—recent weather fluctuations that happen around the world. Floods, droughts, and hurricanes are those visible signs of climate change. Human-caused climate change is projected to greatly impact marine, freshwater, and terrestrial life. Temperatures in Alaska and the Arctic have increased over the last 50 years at a rate more than twice as fast as the global average temperature. Poor people are vulnerable to man-made climate change and respond rapidly to its impacts. Diverse knowledge of and approaches to climate change help understand this growing problem; global average air temperature has increased in the recent past by approximately 1.0°C (1.8°F). According to the Climate Science Special Report, the last several years have been record-breaking, and the period of 1901–2016 is the warmest. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are still rising, with damaging effects on the Earth’s climate. At the moment, the concentration of CO2 is higher than at any point in time—at least the past 800,000 years. However, carbon dioxide (CO2) is not the only GHG that impacts human-induced climate change.

Book excerpt: This is one of seven issue papers distributed to help stimulate informed public discussion on the development of a Yukon energy strategy. It explores the concept of externalities and considers options which will take into account environmental, social, and other economic impacts associated with energy production, distribution, and use in the Yukon. It first introduces the concept of externalities, or external costs & benefits that are not reflected in producer costs or buyer prices, and their relation to energy services. General approaches to addressing environmental externalities are reviewed along with the need for a more comprehensive approach. The remainder of the paper examines a more complete integration of environmental externalities in planning & decision making.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Yukon Cabinet Commission on Energy was created in 1996 to consult with the public on the development of a comprehensive energy policy for the territory. Based on the results of Commission research and public consultations, this report first targets opportunities for managing energy systems in a rational and sustainable manner. Recommendations are made regarding energy management in the home, in business, and at the community level. The second section focuses on four key electricity issues of interest to the public: fairness, affordability, and stability; electricity supply options and efficiency; regulatory processes; and accountability, ownership, and corporate structure. Recommendations directed at the Yukon government include general recommendations that are not time-specific as well as recommendations for implementation from the short term to the long term.
