Stop endangering the population and the planet with nuclear plants! Time for green energy!

It's time for the government to start considering and keeping in mind the long term, not short term. No need for generations to come, having to deal with the same environmental issues that are unsustainable present day.

I am in favor of the province (the entire country too) going to 100% renewable energy as soon as possible to slow the process of global warming.  But, part of this effort must not be nuclear power.

It is time to take action on climate change and to strongly support renewable energy.

The time has come to go all out on alternative energy sources. This may not be easy, but it is the only way to provide for a better, eco-friendly future

Please do not rebuild/retrofit or in any way re-use the Pickering Nuclear Plant for energy. Nuclear energy has been proven to be dangerous and denying it will only bring long-lasting harm to the people who live in that area as well as to the environment.

The only direction ontario (and the rest of the country) should be going in is towards renewable energy.   Stop thinking about what wins votes and start doing what is right.

To whom it may concern,

Energy saving Proposal for  Ontario

There are some 50,000 +, Electric fork lifts, Scissor lifts,Floor machines and Airport baggage tugs with major lead acid batteries all requiring daily recharging.

This energy review is a standard government procedure to make it look like the public is in favour of what a few government people want in order to only support greedy large energy corporations. This is not the direction we want and it stifles our economy to expand.

The world is moving toward a renewable energy future with or without us. I was very pleased when Ontario took steps to be a leader in that transition .  I believe that the environment must be our number one priority: it is a moral as well as economic imperative.

We just built our new home in 2013 only to find out shortly after that "nation Rise" project was underway. My biggest concern is the property evaluation loss for our new home as we were planning to live there for 5 years until the kids leave the nest.

we have the ability to be self sufficient and all 100% of renewable energy,wind water ect ect Please let us take time to make a difference in this world one piece at a time and this is the first step of many many changes that have to be made.

I support Ontario transitioning to full renewable energy sources.

I am astonished that the electricity is so expensive in this province.  Actually i shouldn't be.

Let's do it. Let's invest in futureproofing our society. Not with a damaging fossil fuel industry but with a positive impact renewable-energy-source industry. Always forward. More training, more jobs, better health, better ecological care, better lives.

I believe that climate change is the single greatest issue imperilling the safety and security of Ontarians today. We need to take certain measures with expediency.

1) We need to commit to moving towards 100% renewable energy.

I believe that Ontario should set a target of moving to 100% renewable energy by 2050

Ontario should maximize efficiency by paying full value (e.g., equal to the cost of nuclear) for conservation kilowatts

We are missing the boat. Other countries are making an industry of renewables. We are still living in the big fossil fuel industry subsidize days.
