Spread the Word
While opinion polls have consistently shown that wind energy
has broad public support in Canada, it is important to make
your voice heard when governments and utilities are developing
energy policies and when communities and municipal governments
are considering wind energy projects.
Saying “yes” to wind is a great way to help us
reduce the impact of greenhouse gases and move us into a cleaner
future. If you want to help spread the word about wind energy,

Green Power
Choosing green, carbon-free power is an easy way to do your
part to help fight climate change and create a healthier environment
for future generations.
Green power is energy generated by low-impact renewable
or sustainable sources — resources that are replenished
naturally and with minimal harm to the environment. Generating
green power is cleaner than producing conventional energy
because it produces little or no air, ground or water pollution.
Green power sources include wind, solar, biomass (burning
plant materials and wood waste), and small-scale hydro-power
(including run-of-the-river). (Source: the Pembina Institute)
