A few things this reportemtions but doesn’t make the headline is that GHG emmissioms are reported based on the UN agreed upon measure so finding between 10% and 60% increased emissions shows there could be a significant methodology problem with all of the UN data when calculating industrial emissions.
Do the headline should be UN methodology under reports industrial emissions not Oilsamds pollutes more than stated because the headline of the article implies that this is a localized problem.
The article does do a good job of stating the oil sands companies are compliant with the reporting requirements for CO2 and methane emissions.
