I strongly urge the Ontario government to adopt a 100% renewable energy policy by 2050.  Why do I say this?   Climate change is one of, in not the most crucial issue facing Ontario, Canada, and the entire world in the next 30 years.   Without strong action on climate chan

I sincerely want a 100% renewable energy system in Ontario.  I watched the Fifth Estate Documentary, "The Gospel of Green." Herman Scheer, one of the people most responsible for getting Germany onto the path of renewable power, visits Ontario, and he is amazed by what he sees as our potentia

Good day!

I think that  Ontario should set MUCH MORE aggressive targets for moving to more renewable energy.

I am happy with a few policies that have been made since the last Long Term Energy Plan.

Ontario should set a target of moving to 100% renewable energy by 2050 and instead of increasing reliance on nuclear infrastructure, should decommission existing nuclear facilities safely to ensure a future free from environmental compromise and jeopardy for subsequent generations.

I believe Ontario should set a target of moving to 100% renewable energy by 2050. That is the only way we will survive. Toward that end, Ontario should import more hydro power from Quebec.

I would like to see as much emphasis as possible on developing renewable energy sources for Ontario's energy needs. I understand that the province is producing a surplus right now, but that is due to the operation of nuclear power plants in need of very costly refurbishment!

Dear Minister of Energy,

I would just like to add my voice to the many who continue to support the role of nuclear power, and especially the Bruce Power role, in Ontario's energy needs as the LTEP is being considered.

I listen carefully to proposals that would help us avoid the dangers of nuclear energy and believe that there are paths we should take that would lead us to energy sources that are not going to threaten the lives of future generations.

Reliance on fossil fuels to provide the energy we need will be our downfall. Not only will they continue pollute our environment, causing distress and health concerns for all living plants, animals and humans, but they will eventually disappear.

I fully support all efforts to steer Ontario in the direction of 100% renewable energy, and will vote accordingly in the next election.

Surely we can learn from Denmark, and all the forward-thinking countries leading the way.

Or will we continue to fall backwards?

Now, at a time that we have excess electrical capacity, would be the time to invest in electrical public infrastructure such as electric public transit.

Nuclear is by far the best choice in baseload power production.  It should be rebuilt and expanded as necessary.

I want to see 100% renewable energy in Ontario by 2050. We have to join the global movement towards 100% renewable electricity.

It is the responsible thing to do for future generations.

Moving away from fossil fuels is the way of the future. Canada should become a leader in new/green technology.

Leading edge technology is what will keep Canada a first world nation.

Hello,

I am confident that Ontario can achieve it's goal of 100% renewable energy by investing more in wind, solar and other sources. This form is going in the right direction by allowing citizens to voice their concerns/ideas about energy in Ontario.

I fully support the nuclear industry and believe it should remain a key provider of electricity for many decades to come.

Climate change is the biggest issue that we face.  Historically Canada's performance on climate issues has not been stellar; however, I can now be proud to live in a jurisdiction that has phased out coal.
