Pollution harming
our bezatiful world

Dear Editor:

Why are we trying to kiil
ourselves and our future? If we
don’t do our par. in taking care
of our environment, there soon
won't be one?

In 1984, the total expenditure
for pollution control was $68.539
billion. New in 1991, the pollution
control has multiplied by 10 times
that arnount. Why don’t more

people recycle or buy ozone-
friendly producis? Why doesn’t
the government ban non-ozone-
friendly products? Why are we
spending more money on pollu-
tion whea we could all work
together and save some of the ex-
penses?

Pollution is harming our ner-
vous and respiratory systems. [t
also irritates our cyes, causes
damage to our lungs, causes
headaches, and reduces our vision.
Our o7one layer is deteriorating
and we are suffering from it by
getting cancer and other diseases.
Not only are we suffering, but
plants and animals are too.

Somehow, some day, someone
has got to get the point across
about pollution. 1 hope this un-
derstanding will come soon
because some people may never
have a chance to see hew
beautiful this world could be.

to the media for showing objec-
tivity in their reporting of what is
referred to as ‘‘fringe parties."”

if we are to continue to grow as
a society it is important that we
give consideration to alternative
- political, economic and

_ thought.

1 would like to congratulate all

candidates who participated in the
Having had. firs?-hand
experience I can say it is not an
“easy task, but very rewarding and

social

important to the democratic pro-
cess. Good luck to those elected.

But more importantly, | would
like to thank the public for their
participation in the process. With
such a high turn-out we can all be
confident that the right people
were elected to the job."

ticipatory democracy ! invite you
