I wish for this province, and the country, to have 100% renewable energy.

Solar employs the most people per KW of energy produced, so not only are you saving our planet but you are employing more people.

To whom it may concern,

The choices facing us on the planet are obvious and life-threatening: We can

either adopt, immediately, 100% renewable energy , or face various

types of disasters caused by our continued use of fossil fuels, and

of fostering their production.

I feel Ontario should be a leader in renewable power. To do this the government needs to give a clear picture of the cost of power so that people can truly judge how much renewable power costs in comparison to existing power.

We must ensure 100 %renewables and we must get it done now.

We must cut our hydro bills in half and do it now.

We must ensure any new buildings are made efficient and totally green. Communities must power themselves.  No more transporting power.

I herewith request that you make Ontario's energy supply ENTIRELY renewable on the longer term and that you make every decision in the short term (i.e. within your political term) to achieve that goal.

Thank you!

Ontario must join the global movement towards 100% renewable energy. Our dependence on oil is quite simply killing us. Dragging our feet is no longer an option. Please act now.

Renewable energy is all fine and dandy but the wind doesn't always blow and the sun doesn't always shine so we will have to have a backup system which should be gas as it is the cleanest alternative but when the gov't dismantled Ontario Hydro all that did was open up the door for privatization of

Please make 100% renwable energy for Ontario and Canada, also we donot want the dirty unclear and Fuel industries.

Ontario should join the global movement toward 100% renewable energy.

Ontario’s next energy plan needs to come clean on the true cost of nuclear power and help citizens and communities to empower themselves with renewable energy.

Citizens of Ontario want a better energy plan for the future. Investing in 100% renewable energy to fight climate change, to have better control over our own energy, and to eliminate nuclear risks is the smartest plan.

Dear Ministry of Energy.

Not just Ontario, the planet needs to wean itself from oil, gas and the heavy handed carbon footprint being produced. We should be devoting our efforts towards Green energy, now.

Planning Ontario's Energy Future is very important.  When I look back at USA, Germany and other European Country that have already many years of using Renewable energy and I look at Ontario we are far back in the process and progress.

It was great when Ontario phased out coal. We put less pollution and CO2 into the air so there was less smog, and things like respiratory health improved. My asthma stopped bothering me, and summer skies were much clearer than they were before. Now it's time to go 100% green.

I believe that nuclear should be phased out and all monies that would have gone into nuclear be spent on renewable energy sources

It's time to be bold to later be able to be accountable in front of our children.

We use only public transport, recycle, have a perennial garden where once was lawn, no heavy use of power or water until after 7pm, and use bicycles whenever possible. What are you personally doing towards greening Ontario, are you leading by example?

We know where things are going. CO2 is sky rocketing. At this rate Ontario grown food will lack nutrient value necessary to sustain human health. My cistern overflow has overflowed twice!  38 days above 30'C last summer in our town.

We wish to see a 100% renewable GREEN future for Canada. We need to stop producing oil & gas that's polluting our country and the world.
