LHSC Energy Footprint 2005

Our energy use accounts for 31% of our ecological footprint. The energy footprint comes from the burning of fossil fuels. When we use energy, we put a demand on our power plants to burn fossil fuels and deliver our supply. When we burn fossil fuels unwanted gases are emitted into the atmosphere. These gases are harmful to both our environment and our health.
