Cap emissions from the oil and gas sector to a 75% reduction from 2014 levels by 2030
"Continuing to reduce carbon pollution through a cap on harmful emissions from the oil and gas sector. Oil and gas companies are the biggest polluters in BC while making record profits — they can afford to use some of their profits to invest in innovation and reduce their emissions in line with BC’s cli- mate targets. BC is on track to ex- ceed its 2025 target of reducing methane emissions from the oil and gas sector by 45% from 2014 levels. And we’ll build on this continent-leading progress by driving the adoption of innovative, zero-emitting technology and best practices — achieving a 75% reduction by the industry by 2030." — An Action Plan for You, retrieved 2024-10-07

Use a portion of revenue from oil and gas development to create a Clean Economy Transition fund
"Using a portion of the revenue raised from oil and gas development, including LNG projects, we’ll establish a Clean Economy Transition Fund and focus it on enhancing BC’s clean-economy future — so we can attract even more global investment in renewable fuels, clean tech, manufacturing, and critical mineral mines — and the good-paying jobs that come with them." — An Action Plan for You, retrieved 2024-10-07
