I would like to add my voice and commitment to a move towards a sustainable energy future. I believe that the short term adjustment and transition will be worthwhile in view of the long term gain. The dirty energy we are using now is a threat to us all and especially to our future generations. Renewable clean energy uses the local resources of wind, sun, water, geography and biology adapted to fit the needs and location of people and industry. My personal vision is that each household would be self sufficient using old (collecting rainwater) and new (solar panels) technologies, for example, Garbage would be recycled as an energy. Communities would share resources to grow crops and gardens. Many countries have already moved to using these ideas and Canada would be wise to follow suit. To be self sustainable as a household, a community, a country frees us from the vagaries and dangers of political catastrophes. The smarter and more inventive we can be In developing and using a multitude of cleaner safer energy options and practices will help towards sustaining us in the event of the inevitable natural disasters that are heading our way especially if we continue to use dirty energy like oil and coal.
