[GreenYes] FYI: The October issue of Temas news

["Keith E. Ripley" <vze3gxms@no.address>]

The Oct. 2005 issue of my free monthly newsletter on consumer & EHS policy
developments in Latin America & the Caribbean just went out.  Several
Greenyesers already receive this (and I apologize to them for having to read
about what they?re already acquainted with).  While the Oct. Temas news
contained fewer briefs focused just on waste and recycling than most months,
I think nonetheless some of the EHS topics might interest list members:

Brazil: São Paulo Creates Special Environment Court

 

North America: CEC Releases for Comment Draft Action Plan on Lindane/HCH

Mexico: Bill Introduced to Empower SEMARNAT to Revoke Certain Permits

 

Mexico: Another Bill Introduced to Provide Tax Breaks for "Clean" Cars

 

Mexico: Bill Introduced on Environmental Responsibility
