Ontario should join the global movement toward 100% renewable energy.
Despite a commitment to putting Conservation First, Ontario continues to underpay for conservation and overpay for nuclear projects. Honour the commitment to putting Conservation First.
The economics and environmental concerns of my generation (generation x) and my children's generation (millennials) are paramount. Our future depends and thrives on clean initiatives to ensure a that can support our population and contribute to our economy.
1. A long term plan for energy should internalize all externalities: supply chain environmental and social costs; GHG emissions and waste management issues.
I want Ontario to move to 100% renewable energy, and the only way that will happen is if we take steps towards that. Phase out fossil fuels and nuclear energy.
The shift to 100% renewable energy is essential for 2 main reasons - to keep Ontario from exceeding its GHG targets: and for creating great jobs in a future economy which carbon is a no-no. I urge the Ontario cabinet to do the right thing and abandon the nuclear retrofits and expansions and
I want to transition to clean energy. I will need financial help to do so. I prefer solar energy to produce electricity I do not want any expansion of the fossil fuel industry as that is a step away from the goal of clean energy. I do not want any waterways modified to produce hydro electricity.
Candu nuclear power is directly responsible for all the jobs at Laker. The growth through the refurbishments has helped offset some of the manufacturing losses in the oil & gas sector.
The old nuclear stations at Pickering are no longer safe and must be closed in 2017. Instead of spending huge sums on rebuilding Darlington and other nuclear plants we should be using some of those funds to obtain a great deal more renewable energy. Meanwhile please stop the plan to b
Any energy future of value to the health of the Earth and ourselves will require a move to 100% renewable energy on a very short timeline. To this end, I fully support the phasing out of all use of nuclear power and fossil fuels.
I believe that our future is renewables away from coal, oil, natural gas and nuclear and into solar, wind, biomass, geothermal etc... Nuclear is a clean energy but it is very expensive to create and to maintain. Also, it has the problem of nuclear waste and where to put it. If t
i am very concerned about the continuation of dangerous nuclear power and dirty fossil fuels being championed in Ontario (and the rest of Canada for that matter).
You cannot afford to act on creating 100 percent RENEWABLE ENERGY. The health of the earth and all its inhabitants are at stake. Show some leadership! Stop being so short sighted. I thought Trudeau was a man of vision but it turns out he is in bed with big business. Usual.
Ontario, as an example to the rest of Canada, and Canada as an example to the rest of the world, must shift its reliance on fossil fuels. We must. We cannot continue on the path we are on. Big oil profits cannot continue to be steering our energy decisions.
