Toronto Star's Your City, My City Forum
TAF's Executive Director Julia Langer is one of the contributors to the Toronto Star's Your City, My City forum on the future of our City. In her postings, Julia has been highlighting how Toronto can prosper by reducing its carbon footprint and increasing energy efficiency.
Hot interest in green power
The TowerWise program's February seminar on adding renewable energy systems to high rises was standing room only. Participants particularly appreciated the no-nonsense advice offered by a variety of objective presenters on how to approach everything from solar and geothermal heating to powering up efficiency. If you didn't land a spot, you can view combined video and PowerPoint presentations.
Safe and secure solar
TAF's SolarCity program has developed an education and knowledge sharing program for anyone involved in residential solar installations - from building officials and inspectors to solar industry members. The SolarPermits.ca initiative is offering a series of webinars, seminars and workshops designed to share insights from Toronto's experience in developing and implementing a building permit process for residential solar installations. More information and to register for events.
