Greetings!
The NEW theme of Elements is now online! http://www.elements.nb.ca
>> The title of this theme of Elements is "Garbage is in the eye of the beholder"
http://www.elements.nb.ca/theme/theme.htm
This issue takes a look at Our Society and Waste.
> Articles include:
~ Waste not, want not – Reflections on untreated sewage in Saint John Harbour
~ Orimulsion at Coleson Cove
~ Paint it green - Maritime business meets growing demand for recycled products
~ A Purer Way to Manage Hog Waste
~ Composting Queries
~ A Traditional Indian Understanding on Waste & Consumption
> Elements FORUM:
The current efforts to reduce waste seem to focus on the individual to
reduce, reuse, recycle, compost; but how able are we to reduce our
waste when companies are still using huge amounts of excess
packaging? Are consumers creating so much waste because we don't know
any better or are we creating so much waste because the producers
refuse to use less packaging?
Let us know what you think! email... forum@elements.nb.ca
