DESCRIPTION:PhD Oral Defense of Tingting Wu\, Natural Resource Sciences\n\n
 Climate change has become one of the primary threats of our time. Climate 
 change leads to ecosystem changes\, sea level rise\, increasing risk of ex
 treme weather\, and a substantial reduction in agricultural productivity a
 nd food supplies. If no action taken\, it is estimated that the direct cos
 ts and risks of climate change will be equivalent to losing at least 5% of
  global GDP each year and the damage from climate change could increase to
  20% of GDP per year if a wider range of risks and impacts are taken into 
 account. Therefore\, it is important to find effective measures that can h
 elp to stop climate change. The most popular measures include deploying cl
 eaner energy sources to replace fossil fuels and placing a carbon price on
  greenhouse gas emissions. This dissertation aims at assessing the impact 
 of climate change mitigation strategies in Canada. Chapter 2 and 3 analyze
  the economic and environmental impact of using wood pellets for greenhous
 e vegetable production in Canada. Chapter 4 investigates the impact of a c
 arbon tax on food prices and food consumption patterns in Canada.\n\nEvery
 one in the 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Pleas
 e join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.\n
