As Minister of the Envirunment il was my rcsponsibility tu table the report in the Legisîature. We will be studying ils recummendations carefulIy and to the extent that they are acccpîed as a basis uf future policy, il wll be une of the first attempts anywhere tu delineate the limitations uf our resources and conserve îhemn for future generalions. The report with ils 93 proposais is Onîario's responlse lu the United Nations' Stockholm Conférence of' 1972. Ils principal thrust is impruving our cffrciency in a varieîy of ways - producîs that use Iess power, better public transportation, energy cunscrving building designs, im- proved energy-generating sysîems and the burning of gar- bage lu make eleccriciîy. Farmland, is highlighted as an increasingly important resource. Because of the present wurld shate of foud short- age, growing populations and shrinking of farmn acreage, the report suggesîs Ihat Ontanio nu longer take for granted the availabfiiy of an abundant supply of food for ils population. Recently 1 announced that the Ontario Ministry of the Environmenî and Metropolitan Toronto are investing $7.5 million in an experimental reclamation centre, which wiIl gel undcrway nexî year. This invesîmnent shouîd yield important resuhîs, not just for Metro, but for the entire province. The experimenlal nature of this installation holds a Sreal promise for wasîe management in Ontario. The capa- city of the plant, 200 tons of wastc a day, was sel ai a level thal wiIl produce wurkable quantihies of the separaîed cumponenîs of waste. With these quanhities, we can work out the. separation and trcatment methods, explore lire markets and expeiment with new prucesses tu develop praçtical reclamation. Having eslablished that landfill is nul the final solution, p- we have committed ourselves lu the reclamation of waste.
