write letters for PG air

Email from PACHA president Dave Fuller:

Subject: Please Take 5 Minutes to Clear the air in Prince George
Please Write a Letter to Canfor – Asking them to reduce their pollution!

PACHA (Peoples Action Committee for healthy Air) and MACC the Miller Addition Citizens Coalition is asking the people of Prince George to write a letter to Canfor executive Brett Robinson to ask him to reduce the pollution that the pulpmills are dumping on the city of Prince George.

Canfor is the biggest polluter in the airshed. Some of the emission sources at the pulpmills have not been upgraded despite the fact that the technology is available so that they could make a significant reduction and improvement to odor and particulate emissions.
Currently they are about to receive over $100 million Dollars in taxpayers money for a black liquor subsidy- They have indicated that they are not going to use this money to reduce odor in Prince George. 40+ years of pollution by these mills is enough! Please write Mr Robinson and demand a change in policy! Tell them how the pollution is affecting you and your family / friends. Even a few lines will make a differece!

Mr Brett Robinson, VP Operations, Canfor Mills,
5162 Northwood Pulpmill Rd
Prince George.
V2L 4W2
Please send a CC to Dr Charles Jago - Canfor Board Chair (same address)

If you drop your letter off to Ave Maria on 20th ave or Mother Marias Market we will send your letter out for you to ensure a steady stream of letters reach Mr Robinson! We will even provide the stamp for you!
