I am firmly convinced politics is in the way of saving our magnificent planet.
I believe the scientists not the politicians when I hear from them that the exponential growth of warming is going to wreak economic and social havoc like no World War has ever done. Yet governments, including the Ontario government, are not willing to take the necessary steps to prevent it. We are giving away our water, for some reason we are doing nothing to import electricity from Quebec on a large scale, we have recently given up on renewable energy, we are going to continue nuclear power financial fiascos, the list is endless - all this smells like politics as usual (save jobs secure seats in the next election, etc., and the planet be damned.
I am totally opposed to pipelines, we must leave the oil in the ground.
Yes I do believe this government is taking some environmentally sound steps, but it is not taking bold steps because it is worried about getting re-elected. We do not have the luxury or time for this nonsense. Taking bold steps will allow our planet and its inhabitants to move forward in a secure future for our children and grandchildren, do do anything else is unconscionable.
I am a Liberal party member in Ontario. Federally I just quit the Liberal Party because of its failure to seriously support electoral reform and the approval of oil/tar pipelines. I have now joined the Federal Green party. In Ontario I am not far behind.
