How we address sustainability

Our Method

Demonstrate Mineral Industry Leadership in Climate Action Through Net Zero Exploration & Development

Canadian Copper recognizes the imminent risks associated with climate change.

Our organization believes carbon neutrality is a key strategy that can help reduce greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions, particularly in the mining and exploration sector where carbon-free technologies are not commercially viable. The mining industry contributes 2 to 3 percent of global CO2 emissions, of which haulage trucks contribute 20-25% of total industry emissions.

Why should we care?

Carbon Neutral effect

Carbon neutrality is achieved when a business offsets its internally generated GHG emissions through investments in carbon projects that either mitigate or remove the equivalent amount created. This strategy has several positive impacts; both on the immediate time scale as well as the future decarbonatization solutions by:

  1. The business warrants it does not contribute to GHG emissions through its yearly offsetting credit purchases;
  2. By establishing a yearly GHG baseline, targeted strategies for further carbon intensity improvements can be developed. An example would be carbon intensity per meter drilled;
  3. Through investments in carbon mitigation and capture projects, we are helping to develop better tools and techniques to battle climate change until effective commercial technology is available.
