Climate plan good for economy – Sherwood Park News

November 30, 2015

Our Climate Leadership Plan will strengthen our economy and make Alberta one of the most environmentally-responsible energy producers in the world. This plan will move Alberta away from coal and towards clean, renewable power; reduce pollution by putting a price on it; legislate a cap on oil sands emissions; make Alberta a leader in energy efficiency, and dramatically cut high-polluting methane emissions. Our plan is bringing people together to strengthen our economy, with the support of the oil and gas industry, environmental groups and indigenous leadership. What is clear is that this is a made-in-Alberta plan.

One that is supported across the spectrum but this plan ensures that our province is doing the right thing, showing leadership to protect our health, environment, and economy for future generations. We are addressing the hard-hitting issues that face leaders across the world; our approach will improve Alberta’s reputation and access to new markets, and protect jobs in our largest industry.

We are creating a more stable, diversified economy that will create good jobs in the renewable energy sector. This plan works for our province and our industries and keeps our capital here in Alberta.
