Toronto, ON – As an alliance between workers, environmentalists and NGOs, we are encouraged by the Ontario government’s plan to put conservation first when determining how to meet the province’s energy needs.
Toronto, ON – As an alliance between workers, environmentalists and NGOs, we are encouraged by the Ontario government’s plan to put conservation first when determining how to meet the province’s energy needs.
Energy conservation is a prime example of why our alliance came together – to show that we don’t need to choose between a clean environment and a strong economy. If properly implemented, energy conservation helps cut emissions that cause climate change, protects the environment and creates good jobs.
TORONTO, le 22 nov. 2012 /CNW/ - Un nouveau rapport publié aujourd'hui par l'alliance Bleu Vert Canada - la principale entité qui réunit des syndicats et des environnementalistes - démontre qu'investir dans l'énergie renouvelable et l'efficacité énergétique pourrait créer plus d'emplois qu'investir dans les combustibles fossiles. Le rapport est publié alors que le gouvernement fédéral prépare son budget pour l'année 2013.
