Groups Urge Toronto Council to Solve Its ‘Embarrassing Gas Problem’ [Sign-On] – The Energy Mix
In an email last week, Outreach Director Angela Bischoff said 63 groups
and 19 municipalities have endorsed the phaseout call, but it’s running
into opposition from “gas giants”
like Ontario Power Generation, Enbridge Inc., and the Association of
Power Producers of Ontario (APPrO). “We can keep our lights on (and our
beer cold) without using polluting gas-fired generation,” she wrote.
“But we can’t save our climate if we keep using gas for electricity
generation.”
