Hello- I am extremely…

Hello-
I am extremely concerned and strongly disagree with the proposed Bill 4 to eliminate the cap-and- trade system and thus the programs funded by this price on pollution that helped Ontario households and businesses be part of the low-carbon economy. I am equally concerned that it also removes the legislated greenhouse gas reduction targets that tell businesses where our economy is going.
This year’s more intense wildfires, flash floods and hurricanes are sending a clear message: failing to act on climate change already has an enormous cost. Those costs are only going to go higher, so if the government doesn’t want to use carbon pricing, then they need to tell Ontarians what they will do instead to address the climate crisis.
At a minimum, Ontario’s new climate plan should be consistent with meeting the goal set out in the Paris climate agreement of keeping warming well below 2 degrees Celsius. That will require building more efficient homes and offices that use less energy and thus cut energy costs. It means better public transit and switching to vehicles powered by renewable energy. These kinds of measures will create good, green jobs in the economy of the future.
Please provide details of the governments plan to reduce climate change before proceeding with Bill 4. Thank you.
