It's ironic that you are so smug about reading articles when your comment is directly plagiarized from one but you conveniently forgot to post the follow up point.

Here's the inconvenient truth for you:

Emission targets were missed. Instead of decreasing community emissions, 2012 levels jumped by hundreds of thousands of tonnes over 1990. Corporate emissions have also grown.

The report explains corporate emissions missed the mark due to “pressures on municipal operations and services.” Archer added that — “not to make excuses” — but hitting a fixed target as the city grows is challenging. Plus, “the way we measure matters,” he said.

Piwowar agreed that, considering Regina’s spurt in population, higher emissions are no surprise and the 1990 target was perhaps unrealistic. But he also called it “disturbing” that with improved technologies, emissions have risen since the last low in 2005.

“I think it means greenhouse gas emission reduction at a community-wide level wasn’t taken seriously enough by city council in Regina,” said Peter Prebble of the Saskatchewan Environmental Society.

The city has yet to implement 22 of the plan’s 58 recommendations, mostly in the area of transportation. (Other focuses were education, residential, and industrial, commercial and institutional.)

Next time you should actually read the article you directly plagiarized from before you lecture someone else about reading articles.

And then...

This year, FCM recognized Regina for successfully completing its climate program milestones. It produced a final report on its progress, posted to the city’s website without fanfare — something interim city manager Ed Archer chalked up to the municipality being more focused on its actions than publicity.
