n you save energy
you save money.
This is what Ontario is
to help you save.
Your Ontario Government's goal. by 1980.
is to reduce by one-third the.growth.rate of
energy consumption inthe province. To
achieve that, eleven Ministries of your
Government are working together•in the
Ontario Energy •Management Program.
'The Program has twb objectives — to •
find ways to help you cut your own energy •
bill, and to findways of using your
provinces energy more efficiently.
Right now, the Program consists of
70 working projects., including; ;
• testing ways to reduce fuel consumption
automobiles and farm -operations:
• improving the heating and cooling
systems in government buildings (which
-las already cut some energy bills by as •
much as 20%0);
• finding ways to improve residential
natural gas and oil.furnace efficiency:
• constructing and testing a totally
1-ar-ham. - • •-
-• reclaiming waste materials to produce
energy: •
. • sending an "Energy Bus" throughout
Ontario to do on -the -spot analyses for
industry (so far, annual energy cost
savings,averldging 2(°i0 have been
identified).
Practical suggestions on ways you can
• save energy and money are availablefrom
your Ontario Government and from , ..
energy -supplying companies.. •
