| Audit Update - Manitoba & Climate Change | 04 October 07 |
 Manitoba Wildlands' audit of Manitoba government climate change targets, actions and commitments continues.The second stage of the Audit includes review of action for commitments in Manitoba's 2002 Climate Action Plan, and in the 2007 Council of he Federation (All Premiers Council for Canada) climate change report, Manitoba sections. To highlight the climate change audit research and analysis, Manitoba Wildlands has added a new page to its Climate Change section, 'Audit - Manitoba Climate Change'. The Manitoba Wildlands climate change audit found that very little government information about Manitoba's actions has been released. "If the Manitoba government is taking action, addressing recommendations of the 2001 Task Force, or its 2002 Climate Change Action Plan and really reducing GHG emissions, it is very difficult to verify," says Manitoba Wildlands Director Gaile Whelan Enns. "We would rather be in a position to boast about Manitoba's accomplishments and instead - because of the scarcity of reporting - we are left to wonder what is happening in Manitoba?"
