	Renewable energy (RE) and heating is an environmentally friendly option available to every homeowner across Canada. These options include wind turbines, photovoltaics (PV), solar thermal, geothermal heat pump, and microhydro. With the possible threat of another power blackout like the one on Aug. 14, 2003, which affected over 50 million people, RE is an even more reliable source of power.

Sue Drouillard is a CAW Local 444 member who serves as an executive officer on the CAW Windsor Regional Environment Council (CAW WREC). She is a long time environmental activist who’s primary focus is on Renewable Green Energy. We thank her for providing this comprehensive information package.
