Subject: RE: BS: Canada: Kyoto Accord
Nova Scotia has a total population of well under a million, however, I believe that small populations in industrial countries can do an enormous damage, Our Harbour is polluted to such an extent that falling into it results in an immediate trip to hospital, we have no more wild salmon, shell fish in many places cannot be eaten, our wilderness areas are being torn to pieces by off road vehicles, we are building huge houses for the wealthy which consume vast amounts of fuel and electrical power, not to mention destruction of our urban Green spaces. Our government in Nova Scotia encourages, strip mining, dragging as a means of fishing, monopolies that prohit wind power and clear cutting of our forests.
       Major damage has been done in this Provence in the name of greed, comfort, luxury and convience. We must stop our destruction of this planet and we must not support governments who put profit ahead of a viable future for all people.
       That is my rant for the day. Canada needs to smarten up and do the citizens who demmand frvilous frills at great cost tous all.
