We need action – not delay – on ending Portland’s pollution.
The Portlands gas plant is Toronto’s #1 smog and climate polluter.
On Dec. 4, Toronto City Council’s Infrastructure and Environment Committee quietly stalled one of the most important climate decisions before our city. Instead of directing Toronto Hydro to develop a plan to phase-out the Portlands gas plant and replace it with local renewables, conservation and storage, the Committee sent Councillor Dianne Saxe’s motion to a single municipal bureaucrat for “consideration” – with no deadline for a response.
That means this issue could languish in bureaucratic limbo for months or years – and that’s not acceptable.
Tell City Council to set a firm deadline for a response and to show real leadership for a green energy future for our city >>
