It is vital that the environmental Bill of Rights of Ontario calls for the protection of our air water and land from any form of pollution. This must include the requirement that if an organization or individual does pollute the air water or land that they be required to repair the damage they cause.

Nuclear power is inherently dangerous. The fuel is dangerous. Extracting it is dangerous. Transporting it is dangerous.

In addition, the spent fuel is also dangerous for a extremely long periods.

On the other hand: We know that renewable energy is becoming more and more viable and less and less expensive.

For these reasons, Ontario should phase out nuclear energy plants and increase its use of solar and wind energy generation. It also needs to foster the development of energy charging stations for electric cars.
