    Yes, better sewage treatment is a HIGH priority from the point of view of the salmon and our nonhuman neighbours who live in the water. Our survival depends on the ocean's survival, and we forget that at our own peril.

    YES to going blue!!! In order to create better conditions for healthy living creeks, we will need to unpave and regreen streets wherever we can. Some folks who live in Mount Pleasant are exploring the possibility of stream daylighting in our neighbourhood, eventually. It will be a long process but well worth the effort.

    Here's a working list of creek and waterway organizations in Vancouver: http://downstream.ecuad.ca/?page_id=150 - more suggestions are welcome.
