With Coal, Nuclear and Hydro ALL fading Toronto's new mayor needs energy

As the world shifts from dirty centralized power to clean, renewable decentralized energy, Ontario will be phasing out coal-powered electricity plants and decommissioning aged nuclear power generating stations. There are no plans to replace these with large new stations, and this means Toronto will have to provide much of its own power, and the GTA in general must pursue energy self-sufficiency.

THIS issue is too important to be left to provincial and federal minds. Toronto must reduce the load via energy efficiency, retrofitting and geothermal technology, and invest in new solar, wind and biomass / biogas energy. York Region and especially Durham Region can provide significant amounts of green electricity for Toronto, yet as much or more will have to come from within the GTA.

Peace 2 All,
