The California Air Resources Board (ARB) released the proposed scoping plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 40% below 1990 levels by 2030—the most ambitious target in North America. The first Scoping Plan required by Assembly Bill 32 (AB 32) was adopted in 2008. Short-Lived Climate Pollutant (SLCP) Reduction Strategy.

The UK government’s Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) approved the field development plan put forward by Statoil and its co-venturers for the Mariner heavy oil field. Statoil expects to start production from Mariner in 2017, and the field is expected to produce for 30 years. North Sea oil and gas is a vital asset.

Norway has long been a major producer of oil and gas, and remains the biggest oil producer in Western Europe, as well as, the third-largest exporter of natural gas in the world. Its greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) back in the 1990s were around 51.7 million tonnes per year. By 2015, Norway already had 10,000 charging stations.
