It is imperative that no further damage be done to the environment which would then further endanger any wildlife. The Provincial gov't instead should take measures to improve natural areas in order for wildlife to survive and thrive, and to keep our soil and water healthy.
This includes slacking environmental established regulations which would allow big business and development to encroach into current natural areas. (The Green Belt area is of major concern). Doug Ford seems to be in the process of breaking a campaign promise regarding the Green Belt, since it was said during his campaign that this area would remain intact. At this time we begin to hear otherwise.
I think humans do not always realise that if the environment is damaged this will affect wildlife and our own health, this includes the waste created especially thru plastic and so called paper cups which have plastic in them. These should be banned, period! Bring your own or use a ceramic cup in the coffee shop.
Anything that goes into the soil or water has an effect.
Perhaps the gov't is less concerned about water, for example, since we can buy water from water extraction companies. Apparently more that half of the single use bottles end up in the landfill and ultimately back into the water table. This does not make sense.
We are definitely Not helping ourselves by reckless decisions that damage our natural surroundings.
