With Ontario going to the polls this fall, action to green Ontario's energy supply and reduce global warming pollution will be a hot topic. To cut through the hot air and get to real solutions to the climate crisis, visit the website VoteForCleanEnergy.ca which launched today.
A collaborative effort of ecological organizations including WWF-Canada, Greenpeace Canada, the Pembina Institute, the Ontario Clean Air Alliance and the Sierra Club of Eastern Canada, the non-partisan, educational initiative is designed to inform concerned Ontarians about climate change and climate-friendly energy solutions.
VoteForCleanEnergy.ca will be updated regularly with news and views, platform content and analysis, local energy issues, information on where candidates stand on climate-friendly energy, and how individuals can influence policies and platforms in advance of the election to reflect climate change concerns.
Ontario needs the right leadership to get on the path to a clean energy future and avoid dangerous climate change. Bookmark VoteForCleanEnergy.ca to stay up-to-date on the climate/energy debate.
