The current target industrial tax under Alberta’s Technology Innovation and Emissions Reduction Regulation carbon-credit trading system is $95 per tonne, although credits frequently trade on the market at a much lower price.

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox declared a state of emergency and banned the use of fireworks statewide through July 5 because drought conditions have increased the threat of wildfires. A historic drought has turned vegetation into kindling and already led to hundreds of wildfires, over 75% of which were caused by people. “Nothing about this decision was easy,” said Gov. Cox, a Republican. “Utahns love celebrating the Fourth of July with family, friends and fireworks. I do too. But this year is different. We are seeing fire behavior that even our most experienced firefighters say they’ve never witnessed before.” Utah State…
