The federal agency, in a. recent report, outlined actions such .as development of fuel-efficient cars, energy-saving homes and solar technology, needed by the end of the century to curtail global. warming. They say such. warming will occur unless air pollution is reduced In its report to the Senate subcom: mittee on environmental protection, the agency said most scientists agree that without action to pollution, Earth can be expected to warm by up to seven degrees Celsius over the next 100 years. reduce “There's no doubt there is a consen sus that the greenhouse phenomenon is very real,”” said Senator Max Baucus (D-Mont.), the subcommittee chair man after hearing agency Ad °o|BEAM Home Goods Furniture Warehouse is Your BUILT-IN VACUUMS portly VACUUM-PLUG 'S BES WA :ST-SELLING BUILT-IN VACUUM ETa-U] HEADQUARTERS IN THE KOOTENAYS!

Last decade, the high cost of such fuels and the easy shutoff of foreign sources prompted conser vation moves. To curtail energy use, the report Scientists believe that a variety of pollutants are causing a so-called gteenhouse effect that traps the sun’s infrared radiation, instead of allowing it to go back, into space, resulting in in creased warming: ‘The gases most responsible for the warming are car bon dioxide, thlorofluorocarbons, Proposed: methane and nitrous oxides. — Increasing average automobile fuel economy levels to 17 kilometres a litre by the year 2000. This is in sharp contast to the former Reagan admin istration which in recent years had urged elimination of federal fuel econ: omy standards and accommodated auto industry requests not to set fleet- wide standards above 11 kilometres a litre The report said ‘no technology or policy can significant impact in mitigating the ac cumulation of greenhouse gases’’ because of their wide use.

It said ef- forts must be made to: Stop the loss of forests around the world by beginning in 1990 a program aimed at planting at least as many trees as are cut down or destroyed. Trees ab sorb carbon dioxide as they grow, keeping the gas from getting into the atmosphere End the use of chlorofluorocar bons by all industrialized countries over the next 14 years and take action to sharply curtail the chemical’s use by developing countries. Incinerators alarm environmentalists By DANIEL SANGER MONTREAL (CP) - It’s an age-old solution to an age-old problem Garbage piling up in your kitchen, yard or field? Set it alight and watch it disappear in smoke. Although garbage burning has always taken a back seat to dumping in Canada, it’s enjoying a revival among planners. But proposals to build incinerators — which have come from communities across the country facing landfill crises or hoping to profit from the garbage problems of others — alarm environmental and citizens’ groups They say it’s a wrong turn in what should be the start of the recycling age. “There are proposals all over the place for them (in cinerators); there are at least three or four dozen | know of,”' said Gord Perks of Pollution Probe The out-of-sight, out-of-mind aspect of iicineration is attractive to many, Perks said, ** we're just using the sky as adump site According to Environment-Canada figures, but with incineration about 90 per cent of the country’s garbage output of 16 million ton nes a year goes into landfill sites. Between five and seven per cént is burned in 15 municipal incinerators across the country But thosetigtires are likely to change SIX PROPOSED Toronto, facing the largest mountain of garbage, is looking at a proposal to build as many as six incinerators around the city. Its old incinerator, blamed for half the cancer-causing dioxins in Ontario's air, was closed last July A half-dozen other towns in southern Ontario are proposing incinerators to cash in on the high prices Toron to is paying to dispose of its garbage. One has recently been approved for Brampton Ont.10 deal with that city’s garbage Two have opened in London, The garbage going into the sky contains an array of Bases that contribute to acid rain and the greenhouse effect as.well as PCBs, dioxins and heavy metals, environmen talists say Even if the pollutants-are minimized by scrubbers and filters, the environmental danger isn’t over “The better the incinerator gets (at filtering out pollutants), the more toxic the ash becomes,’ Paul Con: one of North America’s leading specialists on in cineration, said. + nette, The ash, produced at a rate of about one tonne for every three tonnes of garbage burned, usually ends up in landfill sites. “Whenever you test municipal incinerator ash, it flunks the test,”” says Kai Millyard of the Ottawa environ mental lobby, Friends of the Earth, *‘It is classified as hazardous waste. Connett, a chemist at St. Lawrence University in New York state and co-ordinator of Work on Waste USA, said in the’past two years about 50 incinerator projects in the U.S. were cancelled because of citizen opposition BURNS 80 PER GENT He was recently in Montreal|to tour the country's largest incinerator, which burns between 75 a of the city’s residential garbage 180 per cent about 300,000 tonnes a year It’s typical of many incinerators — ity-130-metre stack spews a plume of smoke twice that high as an endless stream of garbage trucks dump their loads are hard tofind If we had toyshut down this Advocates of incinerators operation tomorrow because we had no garbage to burn we'd be very happy to do it,” said Henri Boneilh, general manager of the Mon treal incinerator “Recycling should be our first option always,” said Alain Chamberland of the federal government's National Incinerator Testing and Evaluation Program But environnfentalists say incinerators — especially those that make money setting energy combustion programs enerated by the impede establishment of recycling As well as polluting the atmosphere, the ground water and the food chain, environmentalists say destroys valuable resources paper, cardboard incineration plastic, that might be preserved by recycling aluminum, glass Southam buys share of pollster TORONTO (CP) — Southam Newspaper Group has bought 60 per “BEKKER™= Borat Gnd “Geoltrey— Bekker of cadaces @ girl, born March BIRD — To Trudi and Bean Bird of Rob: son, @ girl, born March 1 BLOY — To Kelly ord Gon Bloy of Fruit vale, @ girl, born March 3 CHRISTIANSON To Vicki and Walt Christianson, a boy, born Jon. 22 CICCHETTI — To Rhonda and Albert Cic chetti of Trail, a boy, born March 18.

Mr Retail trade down in January OTTAWA (CP) — Lower motor vehicle and department store sales con- tributed to a 0.3-per-cent decline in January retail trade, with overall sales falling to$14.3 billion. Statistics Canada reported that, ona seasonally adjusted basis, vehicle sales dropped by 4:5 per Cent and depaf- tment stores. saw a 2.5-per-cent fall in business compared to December levels When new and used vehicle sales are excluded from the calculations, retail trade increased by one per cent during the month. The federal agency said the degline followed a significant overall sales in- crease of 2.1 per centin December “The modest decline in January isin contrast to generally rising retail sales observed during 1988, especially in the last half of the year when retail trade advanced on average by 0.8 per cent a month.’ The highest sales increases were reported by grocery and meat stores (1.1 per cent); grocery, confectionery and sundries stores (3.4 per cent) and hardware stores (6.6 per cent). Men’s wear stores had a slight in- grease of 0:7 per cent, while women’s clothing sales dropped by 0.7 per cent and family clothing outlets had a 1.5- per-cent decline. Household appliance and furniture sales remained strong, up 4.6 per cent and 5.1 percent respectively. Retail analysts expect sales generally to slow this year due to higher interest rates, which will lead to greater savings rather than spending. January’s decline followed an in- crease in December sales of 1.6 per cent Department store stocks, at selling value, dcreased by 1.6 per cent from December levels. It was the second consecutive monthly decrease. cl 3053 Jackson is survived by his mother Isobel — Bratt ATSerT aR ‘Seon ond gran Mason, He was by He was 77. Mr. Nelson is survived by hi AVIVG!
