The province has one of the planet’s densest concentrations of institutions of higher education. If effectively employed, it could help Ontario pivot to confront the global economy’s long-term trends. The most important of these trends is a multi-decade shift from fossil fuels to carbon-free energy… The shift to carbon-free energy will be akin to what economists call a “general purpose technology” transition… It will spur the invention and delivery of a torrent of new technologies, goods and services in every sector of the global economy… Ontario can be in the vanguard of one of the biggest technological revolutions humanity will ever experience. The future is green, not black.
