Ontarians Asked to 'Vote for Clean Energy' 24 September 07

Vote For Clean Energy Logo"Renewable is Doable" is the key message of a voter education campaign launched September 7, 2007 by WWF-Canada, The Pembina Institute, Greenpeace, Ontario Clean Air Alliance and Sierra Club, Ontario Chapter.

"All political parties are courting the environmentally-conscious voter," said Dr. Keith Stewart of WWF-Canada. "People don't look to environmental groups to tell them who to vote for, they look to us for clear, reliable information that will help them to evaluate policies, which is what the Vote for Clean Energy campaign provides."

The Vote for Clean Energy campaign and the groups involved are explicitly non-partisan. The campaign provides voters with useful and well-researched information about the opportunity for clean, climate-friendly energy in Ontario. The groups' objective is to mobilize voters to ask all political parties to make a credible plan for greening Ontario's energy system. They encourage Ontarians to make their October 10th ballot box decision based on who they think will build a healthier environment, economy and climate, for today and tomorrow.
