Norway invests $18B in fossil fuel after Canada’s Trudeau asked country to accept green challenge

The left-leaning government has drawn crticism over its decision despite its commitment to various climate goals

Norway announced an $18 billion investment in oil and natural gas projects just two days after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with the country’s prime minister and invited him to join Canada’s climate change initiative.

A readout from Trudeau’s office June 26, upon the conclusion of the prime minister’s visit to Iceland in which he met with leaders of Nordic countries including Norway, states: “Canada and the Nordic leaders committed to continue to work together to advance global climate action. … They agreed that pollution pricing is a very efficient way to do just that.”

The readout also referred to the Canada-led effort – the Global Carbon Pricing Challenge – to get countries worldwide to adopt carbon pricing to significantly reduce carbon emissions by 2030

Carbon pricing is a policy tool to lower greenhouse gas emissions by charging people and businesses for how much greenhouse gas they emit.
