Gas on the brain: official “greens” continue to sell fossil fuel to Ontario

Gas on the brain: official “greens” continue to sell fossil fuel to Ontario: http://canadianenergyissues.com/2012/10/09/gas-on-the-brain-official-greens-continue-to-sell-fossil-fuel-to-ontario/ "Over the Thanksgiving long weekend, Ontario natural gas-fired power plants dumped roughly 57,908 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), the main greenhouse gas, into Ontario’s air. They did not pay a dime for this privilege. The CO2 dumping occurred as a by product of generating roughly 106 million kilowatt-hours of electricity. That electricity cost Ontario ratepayers an officially undisclosed but inferable rate that is much higher than the rates for clean power like hydro and nuclear."
