GREEN ENERGY ADVISORY TASK FORCE SEEKS INPUT

VICTORIA – B.C.’s Green Energy Advisory Task Force has launched a website that invites British Columbians to submit their ideas and input on the future of clean and renewable energy in B.C.

Following its first meetings, on Nov.27 and 28, the advisory task force has launched the website, www.greenenergyadvisorytaskforce.ca. The website asks British Columbians to submit their ideas and input on the following subjects: clean energy procurement and regulatory reform; carbon pricing, trading and clean energy export market development; community engagement and First Nations partnerships; and clean energy resource development.

Submissions can be made via an email form until Dec. 31, 2009. The ideas and input submitted through the website will help inform the recommendations the task force makes to government in January 2010.

The Green Energy Advisory Task Force is dedicated to ensuring B.C. remains a leader in clean and renewable energy. The advisory task force is composed of four advisory task force groups, reporting directly to the Cabinet Committee on Climate Action and Clean Energy.

Our goal as the Livable Region Coalition (LRC) is to provide a voice for those who believe that efficient and sustainable transportation is a cornerstone for the future of the Lower Mainland. We believe that through creating attractive transportation choices, encouraging urban density, and preserving green space and agricultural land, we can make our communities better places to live and grow.

We believe that the provincial government's strategy to pursue excessive development through the Gateway project is detrimental to the well-being of Greater Vancouver. The Gateway project's stated goals of reducing pollution and congestion will not materialize. Evidence for this comes from many sources. Instead, we advocate real solutions that will actually work and will be less expensive.
