Title: More Jobs, Less Pollution: Why Energy Conservation is Common Sense for Ontario
Description: BlueGreen Canada calls on the Ontario government to cut energy use by 25 per cent by 2025 (“25 by 25.”) According to the economic analysis commissioned by BlueGreen and conducted by Stokes Economic Consulting, reducing consumption by 25% would result in 25,000 new jobs, $3.7 billion more in GDP, lower deficits for both the federal and provincial governments, and a 9% reduction in carbon emissions by 2025. BlueGreen Canada states that a more aggressive conservation approach is supported by environmental groups. The release of the BlueGreen report coincides with a formal review of the provincial government’s long term energy plan.
