@sbuchananTO That was my immediate thought too! The plot is also identical to the 1939 classic "Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel" where they dig a new town hall and forget to build a ramp for the steam shovel to come out. A creative solution ensues... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Mull…

New Report🚨 Ontario has affordable options to meet growing #electricity demand without ramping up #fossilfuels. Research identifies multiple pathways to a modern & reliable grid, but immediate planning & investments are critical. #ONpoli Summary: taf.ca/publications/s… (1/5)

Fossil fuel prices are increasing, clean energy costs are plummeting. Yet Ontario is procuring 1,500 MW of new natural gas plants? No one wants these polluting plants, and they will surely be scrapped. But it's not too late to change course: taf.ca/ontarios-next-… #ONpoli

Great news! Following our #Toronto #EV charging survey and a motion from @m_layton, City Council agreed to install a minimum of 50 on-street EV chargers by the end of 2023. Nice work! Wait till you see the extent of TO's 💚 for EVs... check the data ⬇️ 1/7

City of #Vaughan's proposed design standards for new buildings is great for birds, but not so for the climate. Bird-friendly glazing on all buildings, but no mandatory #energyefficiency? City council should not let this fly. Vote is next week, take action: taf.ca/green-developm…

New report on fugitive #methane demands a recount. Our updated guidelines reveal that methane emissions are more than double what is currently reported. Read the report and find out what this means for #climateaction in the real world on the blog: taf.ca/fugitive-metha… #onpoli

Reaching Ontario's 2030 climate target depends on the next government taking strong action on buildings, transportation, and energy. Look for these key priorities in the party platforms before you head to the polls June 2. #onpoli #OntarioElection2022 taf.ca/ontario-electi…

Gas prices and emissions from vehicles are rising, and #Toronto residents are making the switch to #EVs. But what if you don't have a garage or driveway to plug in? Take this 2-minute survey to show Toronto City Council we need a reliable charging network: taf.ca/toronto-ev-cha…

As reported in today’s @globeandmail, ... we now know that the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) fully understood that its report on the feasibility of a gas-fired power phase-out was highly misleading and skewed to present a frightening worst-case scenario. 🧵 1/

the new un report on climate solutions does not identify industry lobbying as a problem in its summary for policymakers or technical summary but the full report documents it over and over again 1/

@TorontoRBOT @opg @HydroOne @SNCLavalin @Bruce_Power @scotiabank @uOttawa @enbridgegas @UofT @MonicaGattinger @PDalzell3 An hour panel about decarbonizing the electricity grid with 0 comments on #wind or #solar? (Other than @HydroOne complaining about customers who want solar on their roofs). No interest in equity or inclusion in decision-making. Not a balanced conversation, very disappointing.

Ontario’s proposed clean energy credit system sounds like high-impact climate action, but as it's designed it would actually INCREASE emissions from #electricity. Our new blog exposes the two fundamental flaws: taf.ca/how-ontarios-p… #ONpoli

It's a happy narrative, but the wrong power source. If only we put this kind of community investment into distributed energy resources and grid modernization.
