Climate change in Nunavut

On two separate occasions, the Nunavut government released strategy documents relating to dealing with climate change but did not release implementation plans, partially due to human resources issues.^[5]

In 2018, Nunavut had no target for greenhouse gas emission reduction.^[6]

After the federal government imposed a carbon tax, Nunavut residents received a tax credit - originally this was $308 but this was later decreased to $100.^[7]

The Government of Nunavut pushed the government to allow tourism, recreational and outfitting activities in the Tuvaijuittuq Marine Protected Area in the High Arctic.^[8]
