The Province has proposed a 5km shoreline 'exclusion zone' for off-shore wind turbines - effectively eliminating all possibility of off-shore wind energy in Toronto.
ACT NOW: Tell the Province that you support off-shore wind power in Toronto
We need the Province to hear from as many wind-supporters as possible before August 24th, 2010.
Here are some key points to make in your submission:
- I object to the proposed 5km exclusion zone for off-shore wind power. This proposal puts Toronto's green energy future at risk as it will prevent important off-shore wind projects.
- Proper site-specific studies can and should be used to provide scientific facts to ensure that wind power projects are located with minimal health and environmental impacts.
- A single shoreline exclusion zone for the entire Province is excessive and unnecessarily restrictive.
