(Anne Narejko photo) Naturalist conference addresses key issues By Mike Singleton For the Federation of Ontario Naturalists The quality of life in Ontario over decades to come will be determined by society's resolve, or lack of it, in addressing key en- vironmental issues now facing Ontario. This was the underlying message ar- ticulated time and again by delegates to the 55th annual conference of the Federation of Ontario Naturalists, held in Peterborough this past weekend. The more serious environrnental pro- blems spotlighted in the media over the past year are not really 'new'. Chernobyl, toxics in food, leaking chemical dumps, acid rain and forest mismanagement have not sud- denly materialized as avaricious assaults by individuals or firms. Rather they're `sleepers' - problems which have been with us for years, or decades, slowly growing un- noticed and contributed to by society as a March of Dimes whole. For years, we have regarded the environ - lunches ment as a limitless -detached -entity. We've labored under the misapprehension that we're somehow detached from nature. And that nature is capable of providing ever- • expanding resources while assimilating ex new campaign ponentially growing wastes. Finally, the fallacy is 'crumbling.

But that depend upon them. It threatens our forests, doubtless already producing lost vigour and increased susceptability to disease - at preciselythe time we're asking for better forest yield. But, it is solvable - if we're willing to curb our energy appetite and to pay the price for scrubbers and other technology. Leaking chemical dumps threaten the health of lakes upon which millions depend, steadily leaking their deadly cocktail of car- cinogens and dioxins through sieve -like, fractured bedrock. All the while, govern- ments and corporations bicker over costs and responsibility for what are at best stopgap measures. The dumps can be ex- cavated and cleaned up, if we're determined to do it. 1.N A1166 138 The Square, P.O. Box 295, Goderich, Ont. N7A 3Z2, Tel: 524-7385 237 Josephine St., P.O. Box 850, Wingham, Ont.

The Ontario March of Dimes provides many and varied services. They range from the provision of mobility aids such as wheelchairs and artificial limbs to assistance with housing and employment. One very special program that begins soon is the Ontario March of Dimes' camps. These camps provide a holiday in the sun for many people who are in total -care facilities and rarely get a, recreational break out- doors. They also accommodate couples who • otherwise might never have a chance to vacation togetheri One such couple is recently married Linda Thibault and Dean Robinson of Lindsay, who will be honeymooning at one of the camps in August. Both attended camp in 1984, and are looking forward to spending a very special time together this .year. The Ontario March of Dimes is only able to provide these important services through generous donations and grants. Watch your mail for an appeal, and please, give as generously as you are able. Donations can also be sent to summer campaign, Ontario March of Dimes, 60 Overlea Blvd., Toronto, Ontario, M4H 1B6. 406y Op/ Manufacturers List Price Safe disposal of industrial wastes - like those showing up in vegetables and meats on our storeshelves - is technologically available - if we quit the bickering over where facilities should be built, and get on with the job as quickly as possible. Also solvable are forest mismanagement. wetland destruction, agricultural land loss, and the other issues eroding the life-giving environment upon which we really do depend. We have a choice. We can go to Hell on a handcart - waiting fatalistically for society to `go out' with a baiiig or a whimper. ( A bang from nuclear war. Or a whimper of mankind amid a collapsing ecosystem - like millions of frantic mice in a tank, consum- ing their own wastes amid outstripped resources). Or we can act intelligently, with resolve. First, to address the major issues hanging like growing millstones around our necks. And secondly, to build within today's youth - tomorrow's decision makers - the resolve to Stewart the system upon wlu;ch all p` lids. The choice is ours. r ,' .) OPP is enforcing the transportation regulations, The Ontario Provincial Police has established the Transportation Of Dangerous Goods Enforcement Unit to en- sure compliance with fedral and provincial laws goverding the transportation of hazar- dous shipments in Ontario. . The six -man unit is directed by Inspector J.K. Tree of the Ontario Provincial Police traffic and marine branch, who is assisted at general headquarters in Toronto by Cor- poral E. Fearon. The province is divided in- to four equal geographic regions for en- forcement purposes. Officers responsible for the regions are: Provincial Constable A.B. Killens, London; Provincial Constable P.S. - Cox, Thunder Bay; Provincial Con- stable L.L. Beaudry, Sudbury; Provincial Constable M.J. Doucette, Belleville. The unit will work with the Ontario Ministry of Transportation and Com- munications to enforce both the federal and provincial statutes pertaining to the transportation of dangerous goods. The Transportation of Dangerous .Goods, Enforcement Unit will also be responsible for training, providing on-site assistance to other police forces, fire departments, am- bulance services and similar agencies when the need arises. Although the new unit will provide exper- tise to outside agencies in the event of a mishap, enforcement is restricted to the highways which come under the OPP's jurisdiction. In other jurisdictions, the OPP will be assisting the local municipal police force, if required. • The Transportation of Dangerous Goods Enforcement Unit will be operational in 1986. onE &uzcIcI & E9i htEEnt�i an n.ucal HENSALL SPRING FAIR FRIDAY, JUNE 13 and SATURDAY, JUNE 14 MUM `du rruitws8811111111 man....
