    Canadian wood pellets are sent to Europe for extremely efficient and as far as I know clean burning furnaces from remote locations in the Alps (like my sisters) to apartment buildings. Why don't we burn are waste wood (pine beetle and wood that cannot be milled into lumber into heat. Once more we lag behind.
    What should be band is outdoor patio heaters. All heat goes directly into the atmosphere.

  2. Ban disposable cups, plates and cutlery in all restaurants/cafes

    Switzerland has a by-law that food outlets on ski hills are not allowed to use disposable dishes and cutlery. This should apply to all the coffee outlets and fast food outlets in Vancouver.
