I'd simply wish to express my hope that when planning Ontario's energy, we look toward using more of Quebec's Hydro options, continue work on reducing energy consumption and using renewable resources (Solar panels), and that we do not refurbish the Pickering Generating Plant as it seems to be too

I advocate:  simple education of the public, the average person, on the issues of  the delicate environment.

We need to come together to overwhelm the Ontario government with one common message: we want to start down the path towards a 100% renewable Ontario, and that starts with closing the aging and dangerous Pickering plant on the edge of the GTA.

Please help big energy diversify to clean energy before its too late!

My goal regarding energy is that we quickly and seriously head toward a safe and sustainable energy supply future.

I believe that it is essential for the Province of Ontario to move towards a 100% renewable source of energy situation.  It is our children and grandchildren who will suffer if we do not take this responsible position and put our environmental responsibility before our focus on a strong econ

I would like to ask the Ontario government to shift course away from dirty and dangerous nuclear power, and join the global movement towards 100% renewable energy for better future us and our children.

Re: I want Ontario to go 100% renewable

To whom it may concern,

To stop or even reduce green energy projects will have long-term implications. I cringe if I think that we haven't yet fully paid for the construction of nuclear power plants built decades ago and are borrowing many billions more to restore those plants.

I believe that Canada should move towards 100 % renewable energy and the Ontario government should be supporting large renewable energy operations and phase out nuclear.

The time has come for us to join the global movement towards 100% renewable energy.

It makes better sense for the environment and the economy.

Every job I have every received has come out of the green energy act. The multiplied impact of renewable energy development is so significant.  The Green Energy act created upwards to 20,000 diverse jobs.  Nuclear refurbishments give an additional 100 jobs to chemical engineers.

Nuclear energy is not the way to go- very dangerous byproducts, out of control expenses to keep the functioning.

Time to close down Pickering.  We don't need it.

Now is the time to initiate a 100% renewable future for Ontario. Please act in every way you can to make this happen. At our home, we will continue to support you in every way we can.

*if we have conserved 9.9 terawatts (1 million megawatts) between 2005 and 2014 and the target is 30 terawatts by the year 2032, then why the need to produce more power that is expensive and does not reduce CO2 emissions but in fact perpetuates the need for non renewable power ?

I was very hopeful for my provincial government when some of your previous green initiatives were rolled out, and very disappointed when they were blocked for various reasons.
