Deforestation
Forests release carbon dioxide when they are cleared or burnt. About 12 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions come from deforestation
Food Waste
11 Million tonnes of food are thrown out annually In Canada
Food waste is a major driver of climate change, responsible for 8–10% of global greenhouse gas
Agriculture
Rice accounts for roughly 48% of all greenhouse gas emissions from croplands.
