Recycling does cost money,there is ncrauestion,. about that, but so do kandfihi sites. Sedforth fandlie•rest of the cental Hnron landfill cign • mittee members have spent millions . The author of last- week's letter 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- gram in Seaforth. Please be advised, Mr. author, that I do not lightly of their inaterialsdue to contamina- • tion (I personally do not know this 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 pay (which we Ourrendy,do) for a system that is not efficient when we can better spend it on a system that has preven to be successful else- where in Huron County? , 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. , Sincerely, Michael Ash • from page 2 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.
