Globale Erwärmung, oder Klimawandel, ist ein Temperaturanstieg der Erdatmosphäre seit dem späten neunzehnten Jahrhundert. In der Politik zentriert sich die Debatte über globale Erwärmung darauf, ob dieser Temperaturanstieg auf Treibhausgas-Emissionen zurückzuführen ist oder das Ergebnis von natürlichen Vorgängen in der Erdtemperatur ist.

Welche persönlichen Werte leiten Ihre Meinung zur Rolle der Regierung bei der Regulierung von Geschäftspraktiken zur Bekämpfung des Klimawandels?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Wie würden Sie erwarten, dass die Regierung reagiert, wenn ein großer lokaler Arbeitgeber die Luft oder das Wasser in Ihrer Region verschmutzt?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Wie sehen Sie die Balance zwischen Schaffung von Arbeitsplätzen und Umweltschutz im Kontext strengerer Emissionsvorschriften?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Welche Opfer wären Sie bereit, in Ihrem Lebensstil zu bringen, um eine sauberere Umwelt für zukünftige Generationen zu gewährleisten?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Können Sie sich eine Zeit vorstellen, in der staatliche Eingriffe zu einem positiven Ergebnis für die Gesellschaft führten, ähnlich wie verstärkte Vorschriften der Umwelt helfen könnten?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Wie würde sich das auf Ihr Kaufverhalten auswirken, wenn Ihre Lieblingsprodukte aufgrund von Umweltgesetzen teurer würden?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Auf welche Art und Weise sollten sich Kleinunternehmer Ihrer Meinung nach an neue Umweltvorschriften anpassen, die darauf abzielen, Emissionen zu reduzieren?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Stellen Sie sich eine Zukunft mit sauberer Luft und sauberem Wasser vor; Wie könnten strengere Umweltrichtlinien heute dazu beitragen, diese Vision zu verwirklichen?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Haben Sie jemals die Auswirkungen der Umweltverschmutzung in Ihrer eigenen Gemeinde gespürt, und wie könnten strengere Vorschriften dies verhindern?
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
Wie würde sich Ihr Alltag verändern, wenn Unternehmen strengere Regeln zur Bekämpfung des Klimawandels hätten?

If Ontario can show an economic future for Solar then I would listen to a "Business Plan". I may consider it a viable investment if it can be proven. I have no interest in subsidizing power we sell to the USA

The problem is that the government only cares about what looks on paper.
Yes it sounds good to say, "if we increase an imaginary environment tax, businesses will change" but that isn't the case in reality. The change needs to come from the top and needs to be given to the businesses whom in return, give it to the people... You don't truly care about the environment anyway with all your faith in Monsanto, how does one trust your decisions?
@3BDMX253 Jahre3Y
Where it makes sense both economically and comparatively to other industries such as coal and other countries regulations.

Mandate energy companies putting a moderate percentage of profits into renewable energy sources.
@3BCZWSY3 Jahre3Y
In some instances there should be greater environmental protection - oil sands. There should be incentives for self regulation, environmental protection actions taken by firms and for alternative energy.
@3BC2FSD3 Jahre3Y
Provide incentive but do not force it on businesses because it effects everyone. New businesses should have a requirement for alternative energies on startup and should get a kickback if they do decide on it and since they do not need to pay as much for running costs, they should lower their prices to their consumers or put money back towards their business under a five year term depending on the type of business (If they deal with consumers directly or not). The ones that do not decide to change have a limit of 5 years to get the funds for alternative energies or face closure. Small busines… Weiterlesen

Increase regulation on large polluting companies and provide incentives for renewable energy but still supporting oil and gas
@3B94P7Y3 Jahre3Y
Yes but not so much in regards to prevention of climate change, which I believe is a natural occurrence, how ever the environmental regulations should be in place to ensure that we do not poison the land, water and air for our children, grand children and their children.
@3B87WQH3 Jahre3Y
Rigorously enforce the regulations we already have. Ensure the same rules apply to Canadian companies and stakeholders including companies that makes contracts with Canadian companies when they are outside of Canada.
@3B6LF8R3 Jahre3Y
We have enough legislation. What we need is enforcement!
@3B66S6G3 Jahre3Y
Increase regulations increases chances of companies leaving the country. Invest more into nuclear energy and greenhouse gases will decrease significantly
@35FHLX73 Jahre3Y
No, The government is our biggest polluter, it's hypocritical and more of a do as I say, not as I do. The private sector should be incentivized to pursue these solutions themselves
@35CCP8S3 Jahre3Y
No, I feel we have no responsibility to the earth or future generations and we are entitled to use the world in whichever way we see fit. This enables our quality of life to increase whilst maintaining a more realistic view of the human condition as one that is temporary and should be enjoyed as much as possible for its duration.
@35C4SG53 Jahre3Y
The federal government needs to enact fair, negotiated regulations and enforce them with integrity and sufficient funding. I suggest taxation to businesses should be based on how much oversight they need.
@35BV8SX3 Jahre3Y
Environmental protection through government regulation is necessary. However this doesn't mean an increase in regulation - it could mean a more careful application of current regulation or even deregulation. It ain't an easy answer guys.
@356FCJ73 Jahre3Y
On one hand, we should be trying to keep the Earth clean and healthy. On the other hand, most of us will be dead before it affects us.
@355KJTK3 Jahre3Y
We don't need more we need better.
@34XQXCS3 Jahre3Y
There should be regulations to benefit the environment (i.e. Singapore's buying out on cars >10y.o) that can be helpful to the environment in the long wrong however they are not too straining on the lifestyles we are accustomed to living
@34XJKJD3 Jahre3Y
Complete moratorium on all non-renewable natural resources in Canada until such time as sovereignty is regained in the banking system and the CAD is at parity with the USD. Moratorium on dumping toxic waste anywhere in Canada as well as its export until a proven non-polluting disposal method is found and approved.
@34V2Q883 Jahre3Y
Yes. The government is the Public's watchdog. Environmental regulations are crucial to the safety of our world. However, this does not mean that the government should look for funds to do this. It should be their mandate on behalf of the citizens of the country. There is no room for the ability for corporations to bribe government officials.
@34QC7HP3 Jahre3Y
The federal governments in all developed countries should adopt a carbon credit card for all individuals and businesses based upon a head count and revenue respectively. Each carbon based transaction (like your airmiles card) gets recorded in a declining balance. Those who don't use (typically the less financially secure) can sell their credits in an open market. Each year the available credits drop by 3%.
@34L5ZV63 Jahre3Y
place environmental regulations only on businesses that are known to cause higher levels of impact on the environment
@34KSCLSKonservativ3 Jahre3Y
We should be similar to US, if not we drive business out if the country and we'll lose jobs.
@34J9R9N3 Jahre3Y
Government regulation under capitalism isn't possible.
@34HTVNV3 Jahre3Y
The government should pursue such a mandate in a way that does not discourage economic growth and plague local and weaker businesses that may or may not have as large as an impact on the environment as larger and more intrusive companies. Thus the increase on environmental regulations should be on a case by case basis, according to the valued opinions of professionals within the country (and maybe even abroad). Incentives could be given, but not in a way that makes the government seem as if it is unable to take a hard line. There is certainly a fine line to be walked here.
@34D6N5T3 Jahre3Y
No, we have some of the highest standards and regulations in the world and have already set the bar for other countries to meet, let others start to catch up
@344LFNC3 Jahre3Y
As a physicist, I don't believe that global warming is caused by the green house gas effect but by the production of heat by all processes. Therefore, using alternative energies is actually less efficient as they produce more heat and have other environmental issues involved with their use, many of which are never spoken about in the mainstream media. The best method would be to cut back on all energy consumption.
@33ZQ7WK3 Jahre3Y
With the unequal response Globally, what's the point? It's just a money grab with very little effect. Unless it's forced on China and other major polluters, it just puts us at a disadvantage in Global trading. We need employment in this country and forcing new taxes and costs on Corporations won't help!
@33ZN6993 Jahre3Y
I believe global warming is a natural occurrence, but I also believe that we should be good stewards to the earth and take care of it, so incentives should be provided for companies who use alternative energy sources.
@33STNYT3 Jahre3Y
Why focus on businesses? Economic incentives that effect all persons are key, and among them should be rewards for environmental innovations and r&d money for the greening of the economy. Government has to manage these issues. There is no other power to check the greed and laziness that business and citizen alike are prone to.
@33769RH3 Jahre3Y
push for a global standard so that every country is on a level playing field. imposing regulations on Canada only will make it less competitive in many business sectors compared to other countries without these standards that have lower costs as a result.
@336FMX63 Jahre3Y
Yes, especially for international companies that are using up our resources, there should be high premiums on water.
