Trends in Greenhouse Gas Emissions in B.C.

A set of R scripts to populate an indicator on trends in greenhouse gas emissions in British Columbia. These scripts reproduce the results and graphs published on Environmental Reporting BC.

Usage

Data

British Columbia Greenhouse Gas Emissions data are sourced from the B.C. Data Catalogue, released under the Open Government Licence - British Columbia.

British Columbia population estimates (Table: 17-10-0005-01) and gross domestic product (Table: 36-10-0222-01) data are sourced from Statistics Canada, released under the Statistics Canada Open Licence Agreement.

Code

There are three core scripts that are required for the indicator, they need to be run in order:

The run_all.R script can be sourceed to run it all at once.

Most packages used in the analysis can be installed from CRAN using install.packages(), but you will need to install envreportutils using remotes:

install.packages("remotes") # If you don't already have it installed

remotes::install_github("bcgov/envreportutils")

Data pre-processing

If you are updating the indicator, there is an additional pre-processing script found in the envreportbc-snippets package. The scripts are required to process the Provincial Inventory data.
