Not sure how to start this off but after reading some CBC news online I started to think about how I am not sure if the Conservatives or the purposed "Coalition" can create a Federal budget that will work in my best interests but still manage to stabilize the economy enough to help Canada work towards a sustainable future. I hope to convince you that whatever the plan, we should start with a central focus on Renewable energy is in my mind the key to environmental and economical prosperity.
In class this week the idea of the electric car was brought up with regard to solving our dependance on fossil fuels in the auto industry. I think that although this would remove emissions directly from the vehicle, when you go home to plug your car in or charge it up you are using energy. This energy is in the form of Nuclear and Coal for the most part. The point is, either way you choose to drive we are creating emmisons in one way or another.
If we can create a budget that puts more money and incentives towards renewable energy technology, local production of renewable systems and a continuous commitment, we can stabilize the economy by becoming leaders in these fields. Also this could help create jobs, lower renewable energy equiptment costs (lowering economies of scale), and unify Canadians as commited sustainable practitioners.
