This report estimates Californian and Quebec emissions in specific sector and entity-level detail for 2019 and 2020, and, in the light of the recent pandemic, charts the probable pathways for these two economies back to a 'normal' level of economic activity and therefore a 'normal' level of carbon emissions.
