RE:ENB offers OpUp program to Ontario Customers

RE:ENB offers OpUp program to Ontario CustomersVery interesting topic.

I am glad that companies are looking at different ways to fight the carbon emissions. They should start with the Liberal/Green party registered members, hack their db and shame them if they don't register. They should publish the NotSoGreen list afterwards :) Make it voluntary but not quite voluntary.

So we have a sin tax and now a potential moral cost. These are new concepts, I wonder what's next.

While I appreciate the initiative which is amazing, who would opt in such program from this board? Let's have a quick survey. Quinn probably is in, so let's move to next. I for one won't sign up for such a program. I'd rather help the guy/gal holding a cup at the corner. It's just a personal preference.

To get back to the program, in order for this to be successful, I think this initiative should be backed by the gov as a tax deduction since we are all Kermits at heart.

So here is the bigger question: If you would have $25 to spare in a year, would you donate to Sickkids/Foodbanks/Autism/SocialPrograms or contribute to RNG program if both were tax deductible? No option to pick both.

Voluntary RNG program will help to reduce Ontario’s carbon footprint

Enbridge Gas customers can help support Ontario’s transition to clean energy through OptUp, a new voluntary Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) program.

The program, which launches today, supports the Ontario provincial government’s Made-in-Ontario Environment Plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help Canada meet its 2030 emissions reduction target.

For two dollars a month, residential customers who sign up will contribute to reducing Ontario’s carbon footprint with the purchase and addition of RNG to the natural gas supply.

RNG is a carbon-neutral fuel generated by methane emissions from landfills and other waste sources, which would otherwise be released into the air. When captured, cleaned and blended into the natural gas supply, RNG helps lower emissions and makes productive and economic use of landfill and other organic waste, creating local jobs and new revenue opportunities for municipal governments.

Today, 75% of Ontario households heat their homes with affordable natural gas. During the first five years of the OptUp program, Enbridge Gas anticipates that up to 28,000 of its customers will participate, reducing CO2 emissions by 8,000 tonnes—or the equivalent to taking 1,600 cars off the road for one year.

It will be interesting to see if real people (as opposed to politicians) vote with their wallets or their conscience.
