for Providence The earth is the Lords Psalm 24 were accountable and so were making a start Why?
25
Everyone will have their own reasons for sustainability. individuals institutions societies differing motivations are good can still join in shared actions Why? 50by30.org
26
To increase Manitobas renewable energy use to 50% (from the present 30%) by 2030 without increasing global GHGs. goal: 50by30.org
27
a vision for Manitoba by 2030 we can lead in hydro geothermal biomass solar wind efficiency programs demand-reduction programs E D enewables R Why 50 by 30? fficiency emand
28
Why 50 by 30? a vision for Manitoba by 2030 we can be a net exporter of energy almost all of it green be a leading exporter of equipment consultation, design & management expertise develop a new, rurally-focused industry solidify a brand for Manitoba
29
spend more of our money here reduce our greenhouse gases grow our green industries Why 50 by 30?

How 50 by 30? Can we do this? examples Vermont http://www.vtenergyplan.vermont.gov/ North Dakota http://www.communityservices.nd.gov/energy/empow er-north-dakota-commission-information/ 25x25 http://www.25x25.org/ Germany http://www.bmu.de/english/current_press_releases/p m/48295.php
