Get your Councillor to “Dig Conservation, Not Holes!”
|
Want to make sure we don’t dig holes in the precious countryside surrounding the GTA to get the gravel we need to renew our roads, buildings, and bridges? Contact your local Councillor and ask them to adopt TEA’s recommendations to practice the 3Rs for gravel use and help save the countryside we and our rural neighbours depend on. |
Victory! Toronto City Council Votes YES!
Posted August 15th, 2008 by katrina
On December 3rd, Toronto City Council voted for a precedent setting toxics disclosure policy. With an overwhelming vote of 33-3, Toronto became the first city that would require businesses - from dry cleaners to funeral homes and auto-body repair shops - to reveal their discharges of 25 priority chemicals.
The Community Right to Know bylaw (CRTK) will be phased in over four years starting in 2010.
