Congratulations Helen, to you and to the
residents of Port Moody - we're trying to follow your lead here in Durham
Region, Ontario. It gives us hope.

Subject: [GreenYes] First victory in
fight to block Metro Vancouver's incinerators
** apologies for cross postings **
This week citizens of
Port Moody (Canada) are celebrating the defeat of a proposal to build a
"waste-to-energy" garbage gasification plant in their community.
Congratulations to the community, and also to the municipal government
for providing an open public consultation before deciding whether to pursue
the project. Visit the Port Moody website for a summary of the consultation
process and the decision, taken last week, not to proceed with the
project:
