HRM's emissions inventory is still GPC-based.

We are now using activity-based transportation data (induced demand) instead of much coarser fuel sales data. Similarly, our transportation emissions no longer include marine, aviation and rail (freight & industrial) because there is little high-quality data available for those sectors, and they are challenging for the municipality to influence over time through its HalifACT 2050 Climate Action Plan and associated long-term emissions reduction targets. There is no commuter rail within the HRM boundary; Regional Council has voted against pursuing this transportation mode.
