  1. Trust & Beauty in Water

    Rainwater collection should be mandatory on all commercial and community builidng with a filtered system that feeds the water to taps or fountains at street level. These should be designed and maintained so they are attractive to passersby, thereby the quality of the water won't be questioned. FREE, CLEAN, POTABLE WATER!

  2. Start using salt water rather than fresh water for sewage systems.

    Instead of flushing with fresh water we could be retrofitting and designing sewage systems to utilize brackish water. 30% of the world’s population lives near coastlines and everywhere we flush our most precious commodity, fresh water, down the toilet. Making this change to the City’s public washroom facilities, for instance, would make Vancouver a truly innovative, leading city. Salt water sewage treatment has now been recently been studied and successfully engineered at the Centre for Maximum Potential Building Systems in Texas, so it can be done.
