Abstract

Population growth, at both the national and global level, will most certainly impact Canada’s climate, and, more broadly, its environment. While Canada’s population has been projected to continue to grow for many decades, what happens elsewhere in terms of population growth will be particularly important to Canada. Although greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in Canada have levelled off somewhat over the last decade and a half, global emissions have continued to climb. As a direct result, with increased GHGs in the atmosphere, Canada’s northern climate has already been impacted in a major way with considerable warming, particularly in its most northern forests and Arctic ecosystems. L’accroissement de la population, autant a l’echelle nationale que mondiale, aura certainement un effet sur le climat au Canada et, plus largement, sur son environnement. Selon les projections, la population canadienne devrait continuer a augmenter pendant encore plusieurs decennies. Or, ce qui se passe ailleurs en termes d’accroissement de la population sera particulierement important pour le Canada. Bien que les emissions de gaz a effet de serre (GES) au Canada se soient nivelees au cours de la derniere decennie et demie, les emissions globales ont cependant continue a grimper. En consequence directe de cette augmentation de GES dans l’atmosphere, le climat dans le nord du Canada a deja subi un impact majeur par un rechauffement important, surtout dans les forets les plus au nord et les ecosystemes arctiques. Mots-cles : population et environnement; climat; utilisation d’energie; pointe de population

人口增长,在国家和全球层面上,肯定会影响加拿大的气候,更广泛地说,影响它的环境。虽然加拿大的人口预计将在未来几十年继续增长,但其他地方的人口增长情况对加拿大尤为重要。尽管加拿大的温室气体排放量在过去15年里有所稳定,但全球排放量仍在继续攀升。其直接结果是,随着大气中温室气体的增加,加拿大北部的气候已经受到显著变暖的重大影响,特别是在其最北部的森林和北极生态系统中。L ' acroissement de la population, ant a 'echelle nationale que mondiale, aura确定不受加拿大等国家气候的影响,加上面积,环境。根据预测,加拿大人口将继续增加,并在未来几十年内继续增加。或者,对于加拿大来说,这是一个特别重要的问题。加拿大的温室气体排放和服务效应(GES)将继续保持稳定,全球温室气体排放和服务效应将继续保持稳定。因此,直接增加温室气体排放量,增加大气排放量,减少气候排放量,减少加拿大北部的排放量,减少对气候的影响,减少对森林的影响,减少对生态系统的影响。主题:人口与环境;气候由;利用d 'energie;人口点

期刊介绍: Canadian Studies in Population is an established international forum for research on population processes in Canada and around the world. Emphasis is placed on cutting-edge research relevant to demography and other population-related fields (including economics, geography, sociology, health sciences, public policy, and environmental sciences). The journal publishes original research articles and brief research notes that make an empirical, theoretical or methodological contribution. Since its founding in 1974, Canadian Studies in Population has been the official journal of the Canadian Population Society (CPS) and the leading journal on population studies in Canada, promoting dialogue between Canadian researchers, statistical agencies and policymakers.
