Environmental Metrics By Industry
Social Metrics By Industry
Data sources and notes
Energy use per employee (gigajoules/employee)
Sources: Notes:
  • Energy use per employee is calculated by dividing the industry’s energy use by the total employment for that industry.
  • The energy use data is for “B.C. and Territories” whereas labour force data by industry is for B.C. only
GHG emissions excluding electricity per employee (t of CO2e/employee)
Sources: Notes:
  • GHG emissions per employee is calculated by dividing the industry’s GHG emissions use by the total employment for that industry.
  • GHG emissions data is for “B.C. and Territories” whereas labour force data by industry is for B.C. only
Energy Use and GHG Emissions by Energy Source

Source: Natural Resources Canada. Industrial sector – Aggregated industries: British Columbia and territories, Table 1: Secondary Energy Use and GHG Emissions by Energy Source

Notes:

  • Data on GHG emissions are presented excluding GHG emissions related to electricity production.

  • “Other” includes steam and waste fuels from the cement industry, Coke and Coke Oven Gas, and Heavy Fuel Oil (energy use only). The total amount of energy use and GHG emissions produced by the “Other” category may be under-represented due to suppression.

Diverted waste as a % of total non-hazardous waste
Sources:

Note: Diverted waste as a % of total non-hazardous waste is calculated by dividing tonnes of all diverted material from all sources by all sources of waste disposal.

Non-residential waste as % of total non-hazardous waste

Source: Statistics Canada. Table 38-10-0032-01 Disposal of waste, by source

Note: Non-residential waste as % of total non-hazardous waste is calculated by dividing tonnes of Non-residential sources of waste for disposal by all sources of waste disposal.
