With a carbon tax on fuel being levied in July and legislation introduced earlier this month mandating the use of renewable fuel, there are few industries in British Columbia more directly affected by the provincial government's green plan than transportation. And among that group, the trucking industry may feel the effects most.
The carbon tax -- which will add 2.76 cents to a litre of diesel fuel this year and 8.27 cents a litre by 2012 -- is the biggest concern (diesel fuel currently costs about $1.25 a litre).
Individuals can change their habits and consume less fuel, but trucks can't, said Paul Landry, president and CEO of the B.C. Trucking Association.
