Where is Canada on Renewable Energy and Jobs? With Vittoria Bellissimo

The Environment in Canada Podcast Episode 31 on progress towards renewable energy and renewable jobs in Canada…

Conor talks with Vittoria Bellissimo of the Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA) about where Canada actually stands on progress towards renewable energy and jobs and what actions are needed most from governments at all levels. Plus they discuss examples of communities taking control of their energy grids through renewables, how companies should work with communities to address their concerns and wishes, and some of the misinformation out there on renewable energy reliability, practicality, and affordability.

In the Q&A we answer a series of comments and concerns on having hope in the environmental movement and talk about why people are making a real difference – a difference we should take note of even as a we grapple with the complexities of climate action.
