Summary: | Canada has the majority of the world's unconventional oil sands reserves, located mainly in the province of Alberta. Based on the information gathered, it was possible to understand the production methods used by this industry and their respective environmental impacts. The emission of greenhouse gases during the exploitation and production process of these two techniques was specifically studied, once the levels of pollution emitted into the atmosphere were identified, we proceeded to look for some solutions proposed by different authors, as well as methodologies and technologies that the Canadian government has been applying in order to follow the sustainable development objectives that follow the framework of the 2030 agenda of the UN, such as the capture and storage of carbon dioxide, as well as its treatment and utilization, achieving the optimization of the use of natural resources. |
