Mods, this might go better in another section of the forums, feel free to move it to business, politics and the economy if necessary or another section.
I just saw a couple city reports on climate change, linked from a
CATCH article... would like to hear some other opinions on what the city's plans are and should be.
What struck me the most was how 61% of our greenhouse gases (over 8 million tonnes a year) come from the 2 steel mills, compared to 1 million tonnes that come every car and truck driven in Hamilton during the year. That's a lot of greenhouse gases (not to mention other pollutants spewed out) for a few thousand jobs IMHO...
Online, there's a few links:
The summarized 18-page "Taking Stock"
document
Full 167-page Hamilton Air Pollutions and Greenhouse Gases Emissions Inventory
document
The city also has a
survey to gather feedback on this issue
