The province's commitment is only a jumping-off point for the rest of us to crank up our efforts. I'm looking forward to seeing how all the pieces start linking together -- clean tech, green products and services, municipal programs, community action, and individual commitment. When we start linking a conservation movement with an emerging green economy, who knows what we can accomplish. Agreed Tyler.

If the focus on automobile technology isn't credible - I agree with your comments - and the reductions in housing /building emissions is so minuscule, how can you get excited over the programme. After all, transportation and buildings generate the majority of GHGs in this province. Given our harsh environment, and the criticality of managing building climates (heating) in order to survive our winters, it seems to me that this is an area that we could focus on if leadership is McGuinty's goal. Tyler,
