That warning was delivered delivered by Colin Isaacs, the Executive Director of Pollution Pollution Probe, during an address address to the Bowmanville Rotary Club last week. Mr. Isaacs said that by the year 2000, we could be looking looking at environmental problems problems costing more than $1 billion to clean up annually unless industries become more pollution-conscious. "Clearly, we've got to avoid that situation," he said. Mr. Isaacs said Pollution Probe officials have been addressing different service service clubs because it's one way to reach small businessmen. businessmen. He said the smaller smaller businesses often lack the environmental information information that has been obtained by larger companies. "I am sure that there are people here in this room who are involved with companies companies that produce more waste than they need to," he said. At the same time, he says most Canadian firms could be doing more to prevent pollution. Most of the statistics used by Mr. Isaacs during the address address were American be cause the problem has received received more attention there. Those figures show that the U. S. bill for environmental environmental clean-up could top $11 billion by the year2000. Mr. Isaacs pointed to a 1983 study on American firms which shows the cause behind the expense. In that study, industrial waste was greater than 266 million metric tonnes. Attitudes towards pollution pollution must change, Mr. Isaacs warned. He said the best policy to adopt is non-waste technology, where "economically attractive alternatives" alternatives" are sought for most means of production. "The product may remain the same but the pathway to the production is different," different," Mr. Isaacs said. Some of the methods of non-waste technology are very apparent, including the recycling of trash. Mr. Isaacs stressed the need for increased recycling, recycling, noting that it will cost about $10 million to clean up some individual landfill sites that are polluting the groundwater. However, he said there are many other methods of non-waste technology which can be applied to a variety of industrial machines at all levels of business.

Mr. Isaacs said there are a variety of funding sources which can be approached to help install the technology. After that, he said the company can save money by reducing the quantity of its waste. He pointed to 3M as one example of a company that saved money through the application of non-waste technology. In less than five years, 3M saved $192 million and 254.000 barrels of oil through the new production equipment. They also reduced reduced wastes such as the 90.000 tonnes of air pollutants pollutants they used to release. Given these potential results, results, Mr. Isaacs told the Rotary members there is no reason not to look to improvements. improvements. He said there is information information available on waste management, including Pollution Probe's book, "Profit From Pollution Prevention." Prevention."
