    In the January 2010 Alive Magazine Mayor Robertson talked about making Vancouver the greenest city on the face of the Earth by 2020.
    Let him start now by protecting the air that we breathe and ban wood smoke from wood stove, fire pits and back yard burning. Let Mayor Robertson lead the way in B.C.

    Protect the health all of citizens and ban burning, Wood smoke from wood stove and fireplaces are making people sick causing COPD, Asthma, Heart Disease and Cancer. Smoke from burning is the number 1 air pollution in B.C. If Vancouver is a green city then why is burning allowed? Time to protect human health and the health of our planet. Stop wood stove smoke and ban all outdoor burning .PLEASE
