Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study describes and evaluates the environmental sustainability reporting practices of the federal, provincial and territorial governments of Canada.Public reporting on progress towards environmental sustainability enhances government accountability, provides accessible, authoritative, and scientific information to stakeholders, and is an important part of the larger environmental sustainability planning systems of governments.Background information on environmental sustainability reporting is provided and reporting practices of each Canadian government are described in detail.The environmental sustainability reporting system for each jurisdiction is evaluated relative to international best practice criteria for environmental sustainability planning systems.The results indicate that there are many opportunities to improve the environmental sustainability reporting practices of Canadian governments.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
