Terry Jacks receives
environmental award

ENVIRONMENTAL
WATCH founder Terry
Jacks has been named the
first recipient of the Eugene
Rogers Environment
Award.

The award, presented by the
United Nations Association in
Canada and the Western Canada
Wilderness Committee, honors the
memory of Eugene Rogers who
spent. years working to preserve
natural wild systems throughout
B.C.

In announcing the award, the
selection commitiee said Jacks has
contributed a ‘tireless effort’’ in-
to focusing public attention on
what it said was the lack of pro-
vincial enforcement of ‘the most
toxic industry in North America,
the pulp and paper industry.”

“This industry emits over 1,000
toxic compounds into our air and
water daily. And, according to
Environment Canada, it) is
responsible for more than half of
our water pollution, putting more
toxic effluent into our waters than
all municipal sewers combined,"'
said Jacks.

The awards committee also
cited Jacks for his ‘persistence
and impact through such diverse
efforts as petitions, pamphlets,
television and radio debates, lec-
tures, television and video produc-
tions.”

The committee also noted that
Jacks has taken Segal action and
organized events that included a
flotilla of 200 boats up Howe
Sound protesting the closure of
fisheries due to pulp mill pollu-
tion.

Jacks said he will now draw at-
tention to pulp mill regulations
the provincial government has said
would be in effect by July.

“The new laws would allow the
pulp and paper industry 10 years
in which to eliminate the use of

chlorine and chlorine dioxide,”’
said Jacks. ‘*Delays will further
hurt our fishing industry as well
as jeopardize tourism, our second
largest source of income. If we
don’t move as quickly as possible,
we will only accelerate the
degradation of our abused en-
vironment.”’

Jacks added that jobs will only
be lost if pulp mill companies
delay conversion and become
non-competitive in the changing
pulp and paper market.

“Sadly, when it comes down to
the bottom fine, what we are
ultimately dealing with is greed
and corruption at the highest
levels of industry and govern-
ment,’’ said Jacks.
