Alberta’s greenhouse plan could cost billions, fall short, auditor warns

CALGARY - The Alberta government's $4.7 billion strategy for reducing greenhouse gases lacks concrete planning and could cost taxpayers billions of dollars without any guarantee of substantial reduction in greenhouse gases, says the province's auditor general.

"Alberta could spend a lot of money but not achieve emission targets," wrote Auditor General Fred Dunn in a report released Thursday.

"Or it could achieve targets, but not cost-effectively."
