“In my opinion, the negative impacts of nuclear power are greater than the negative impacts of wind power.” -  <http://cleanairalliance.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9e0d2b5aacdacc8f6d679bba2&id=05a5e0bf49&e=45743fde61> Jack Gibbons. OCAA

Ontario

☢ Wind power prices drop below nuke re-build costs in Ontario <http://cleanairalliance.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9e0d2b5aacdacc8f6d679bba2&id=56755908a0&e=45743fde61>  Ontario just signed 12 contracts with wind and solar companies that are cheaper or competitive with nuclear rebuilds. If we're smart, we'll combine energy efficiency and water power imports from Quebec <http://cleanairalliance.us5.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=9e0d2b5aacdacc8f6d679bba2&id=204af8338b&e=45743fde61>  with made-in-Ontario renewable energy to build a much more cost effective, responsive and responsible electricity system for Ontario.

☢ Cheaper wind contracts bolsters anti-nuke cause <http://cleanairalliance.us5.list-manage.com/track/click?u=9e0d2b5aacdacc8f6d679bba2&id=d833cf64f0&e=45743fde61>  The plummeting price of wind and solar energy in Ontario was exemplified in a province wide bidding process that cut the cost by almost half. “There’s no doubt in my mind that the cost of Darlington Nuclear’s rebuild will be significantly more than the contract of wind (energy),” Gibbons said.

☢ Toxic concerns put brakes on nearby nuclear waste burial site <http://cleanairalliance.us5.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=9e0d2b5aacdacc8f6d679bba2&id=a51ac7e48e&e=45743fde61>  Good interviews in this NOW article about OPG’s obscene plan to dump nuclear waste under Lake Huron.
