A new administration in the United States, for example, is threatening to withdraw from the Agreement altogether. Many countries, such as Brazil, Turkey and South Africa, are being buffeted by political and economic crisis that constrain them from focusing on Paris Agreement commitments. However, constraints at the national level do not seem to impede sub-national governance units- provinces/regions/states from pushing forward with aggressive and impressive emission reduction efforts. In this Climate Scorecard Report we highlight best practices at the sub-national level in the 25 leading greenhouse gas emitting countries. The Report highlights a variety of innovative efforts ranging from hydrogen powered urban transportation systems in the cities of Aberdeen and Bristol in the UK to the use of waste heat from power plants for home energy use in Hebei Province in China.

  • July 24, 2018 THREE TOP 100 PLAYERS, TEN in TOP
    July 24, 2018 THREE TOP 100 PLAYERS, TEN IN TOP 150 ON ODLUM BROWN VANOPEN MEN'S MAIN DRAW LIST West Vancouver, BC – The Odlum Brown VanOpen is pleased to announce the men’s field which will compete in the $100,000 ATP Challenger Tour event August 11 - 19 at Hollyburn Country Club. The field is among the strongest in the tournament's 16-year history. The players on the list are in addition to 17-year-old Canadian rising star Felix Auger-Aliassime, who was announced as committed to playing at the tournament earlier this week. "We are thrilled this year to have another strong field of players in our men’s event. We have players with victories over Nadal and Federer, and our number 1 seed Pierre-Hugues Herbert has won multiple Grand Slam doubles titles, including at this year’s French Open. The caliber of player we’ve attracted is world class and we are honored that they have chosen to participate in our award-winning event," said Odlum Brown VanOpen Tournament Director Rik de Voest. Overall, 11 of the men’s participants competed in the main draw at Wimbledon last month. The list also includes three players who were most recently ranked within the World Top 100. France's Herbert is currently World No. 79, Gilles Muller of Luxembourg is ranked No. 92, and Aussie Jordan Thompson is 98th overall. Herbert's career high singles ranking is No. 63, but in doubles he's been ranked as high as No. 2, which came July 2016. The 27-year-old is a three-time Grand Slam Doubles champion, winning crowns at the 2015 US Open, 2016 Wimbledon, and earlier this year at Roland Garos.
