　　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.
