The world moves forward and the Ontario Provincial government continues to beat a dead horse transferring the cost of maintaining an ancient energy infastructure to it's citizens on fixed incomes.

I would like to encourage the Ontario government to endorse a 100% renewable energy policy. I applaud the government's foresight in eliminating coal-sourced energy, and would like them to continue to be a leader in the move towards renewable energy.

Hi,

I believe that all people should be able to install solar panels on their roofs and generate our own clean energy. All we need is your support.

It is now critical for Canada and specifically the populous and economically central province of Ontario to become a leader in renewable energy and societal decarbonization.   Wind energy, solar.

Ontario needs to move to 100% renewable energy as soon as humanly possible. I've had enough of the financial and ecological issues of nuclear and fossil fuel energies and the public simply can't shoulder the cost any longer. We won't have it.

Ontario’s next energy plan needs to ensure Ontarians can take advantage of the declining cost of renewables.

After conservation, renewable energy should be the top priority of Ontario’s next energy plan.

· 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

Ontario needs an energy plan for the 21st Century - a plan that will make use of Ontario's abundant resources of wind, sun and geothermal.  The money currently spent by the Government of Ontario to support aging nuclear power stations should be redirected towards non centralized alternative

Let's get Ontario onto Renewable Energy! Let's stop wasting time and money on stuff that can't last anyway, and is going to make us extinct.

I support 100% renewable energy.  Phase out nuclear sooner than later.  We can't afford it when it is "working", and we can't afford it when there is an accident like Fukushima.  What ever benefit you think there is, it will be wiped out, and cost more socially, and environmentally

Renewable energy is the future

Renewable is good for the environment

Yes indeed, we need a 100% renewable energy policy for Ontario.  I prefer conservation and renewables over dirty, dangerous nuclear and fossil fuels.

Our world's future seems dependent on reducing our carbon producing energy;  please give renewables a significant trial.

While most of Europe is decommissioning their Nuclear Power Plants, Canada is busy retro-fitting at great cost and concern to it's citizens. Nuclear energy has proven with Chernobyl and Fukushima that it is anything but safe and as our rates attest, is not economical.

I fully support a fast and thorough shift to 100% renewable energy for Ontario and Canada as a whole. This also includes standing against new infrastructure that reinforces the use of fossil fuels for energy production in Canada and abroad.
