also asked that I petition those who
do not recycle and industries who
do not use recyclable products. 1
have been involved in doing just
that and the petition which was
circulated was one way of making
the people he mentioned more
aware of the problem. I am- also
constantly trying to educate the next
generation about how to solve 'the
current environmental woes. These
processes take time as will the
implementation of a recycling pro-

for a fact). If this is true the efforts
of these who recycle, now are
wasted, since the Material will. end
up in a landfill site anyway. Why

system that is not efficient when we
can better spend it on a system that
has preven to be successful else-

, In closing, 1 would like to say
that the intent of the petition was
neither harmless nor misdirected.
My wife and I perceived an
ongoing environmental problem in
the community and we have made
a suggestion ' to help solve the.
problem. If it is passed by we will
still work ensure that our
children and their children will have
a place to live where there is clean
air, clean water, and land upon
which they can grow food.

microwaving, and at the same time
reduce packaging? Can we insist on
organically pure produce, and then
let processmg precook it after
mixing it with ingredients that one
would need a Chemistry degree to
recognize? How can we worry
about what was used to eliminate
the fungus on the grapes (which can
be washed oft), and then opt to use
the new American Simplex oil
substitute which is supposed to let
you eat ice cream with half The
calories?
The Campbell Soup Co. Ltd., a
leader in the food processing in-
dustry, a large employer and a large
buyer of farm produce in South-
western Ontario, recently announced
that their Si. Marys° plant is for
sale, and they do not rule out
further sales of other Canadian
plants such as Listowel or Chatham.
They blame this decision on free
trade and tariff concerns.
If their company and other food
processing companies are
increasingly drawn back to USA,
we will end up buying more
prepackaged value-added con-
venience foods as imports, whilst
facing declining markets and
increasing unemployment here.
The grocery stores seem to be
catering toward a generation of
people with tastes for highly
processed time -saving food
• products. The environmentalists
want to reduce packaging, and
eliminate additives. Which market
should the simple farmer try to
address? It can be an expensive
proposition to try to read the trends
of the future and gamble on making
the right choices.
