Key concerns include: rising energy costs, changing technology, potential regulation of greenhouse gas emissions and international competitiveness. There may also be opportunities to develop new product, market new services and create new technologies.

There are a number of Saskatchewan businesses who have registered through the Canadian GHG Challenge Registry, a non-profit partnership between Industry and Governments across Canada to publicly record their Action Plans and Progress Reports that from the basis for planned greenhouse gas emissions reduction activities.
