  Acting Today for Tomorrow

  Protecting the natural environment,

  the ecology of a country,

  is a major concern

  for every country these days.

  It is mandatory not to

  minimize the importance of clean air,

  clean water, and clean land.

  It is a sad commentary on todays society

  that industries have been permitted

  to contaminate our natural surroundings.

  A dreadful discrepancy exists

  between the importance placed on economic development

  and the protection of the environments heritage.

  If allowed to proceed unchecked,

  the public will eventually inherit a major catastrophe.

  Even countries who practice strict pollution

  control measures may still be affected

  by countries adjacent to or adjoining them,

  when air pollution permeates the air.

  It is important for media coverage

  to compile accurate data

  to enable the public to boycott

  increased irresponsible industrialization.

  To disguise the peoples safety calling it progress

  will eventually lead to many casualties.

  Canada has a land and water mass of 9 970 610 km2,

  with a population of 30 million people.

  This is a country where the ratio of people

  compared to the mass of the land is very low.

  Can you conceive that

  in such a gigantic land

  that a garbage problem exists?

  I wish that I could reassure you that

  the answer is in the negative.

  The commodity most needed

  to address this problem is space.

  However, as urban areas grow,

  the abundance of waste also increases.

  Where once ample disposal sites were available,

  now every municipal government

  is scrambling to comply with

  and uphold local and national health regulations.

  Large metropolitan cities

  are having an especially difficult time.

  Local recycling programs have been authorized

  in many localities to safeguard the countrys ecology.

  Even after the establishment of such token measures,

  reports from five consecutive years

  have indicated only negligible progress

  in solving this very perplexing problem.

  If we are to seriously address the problem

  we will need to minimize

  the amount of refuse we dispose of.

  New areas will need

  to be allocated for this purpose.

  The database of information collected

  should be detailed enough

  to responsibly direct our future actions.

  Every community, whether large or small,

  is searching for a solution to this problem.

  Municipalities, in attempting to appraise the situation,

  have spent countless years in research,

  expending both time and money,

  looking for a homogeneous answer.

  The public, hoping to avoid the tragic consequences

  of a manipulated decision,

  refuses to give enthusiastic support

  to most proposals.

  Solicitors are hired to prepare confidential reports

  to convince the public to accept the municipalities suggestions.

  The choice of a specific piece of farmland

  as a landfill site often causes

  an instantaneous hysterical reaction.

  At local meetings citizens reproach

  government officials yelling their disapproval

  at the choice of a specific site.

  They vent their anger

  but are not always able

  to mobilize sufficient public support

  to effect a wise and acceptable decision.

  Even though researchers claim that

  lined pits will not cause a drainage problem,

  the room for error is marginal.

  One flaw in the plan could be responsible

  for an epidemic or worse,

  causing multiple deaths.

  Any leaching from a landfill pit

  will create recurring difficulties

  in polluting a farmers well and the ground water.

  Polluted water flowing into lakes

  will affect fish and wildlife

  and will hinder the sportsmans pleasures.

  To articulate their concerns beforehand,

  will hopefully avoid grief in the future.

  A veiled threat to public health

  immediately creates a bias

  towards protecting the peoples safety

  and interests and establishing an educated suspicion.
