My province has been aggressively eliminating its coal-fired power stations, and has been buying electricity from local solar and wind farms at generous rates. The recent massive investment in more efficient hydroelectric power plant supply tunnels increases power output without flooding land with new dams. As a result, every kilowatt hour of electricity in Ontario releases just 72 grams of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Of course, the filthy tar sands oil production more than compensates for the low emissions from my province.
