This year, beginning April 19th and running until until the 25th is Earth Week. This is a period of time to reflect upon the world around us in which we live. In the White Rose 1993 Nursery and Garden Guide they have an article article concerning trees, and the benefits which we experience due to trees. According to the article, each urban dweller requires 60 trees to replace the oxygen which they consume due to their regular breathing. Trees also- absorb carbon dioxide thus reducing the greenhouse effect. The article further states that trees absorb pollutants pollutants from the air, in particular lead, nickel, and cadmium or chromium. Planting a tree could change the future of all of us. The present controversy controversy concerning the deforestation of the tropical rainforests is a very important issue. 96,000 acres of irreplaceable irreplaceable rainforest is lost every day. Rainforests occupy approximately 2% of the Earth's surface, and.yet they support over half of all life upon the planet in varying ways. The vegetation vegetation in the rainforest is seeming to be a promising source of new medi- ROADHOUSE & TAVERN R ■ f <-A A Tribute to John Cougar Mellancamp Tickets are $7.00 in Advance $10.00 at the Door Proper I.D. is Required!

This madness is not unique to some secluded far-off distant South American country, this madness also exists here in Canada. Canada was at one time densely populated with trees far as the eye could see In the upcoming weeks we should try to further our understanding of not just where we live, but also where other people live. This world is a small place, and through continual continual technological advancements its continually getting smaller. We should try to gain knowledge from other countries without having to experience experience the problems here in Canada for ourselves. It is too easy to believe that we are separate from the rest of the world, and that our problems here in Canada are unique, and different from any other country's. The problems are slightly different, but not different enough to be unable to compare the situations. The issue of the Spotted Owl in the United States is such a possible comparison which we could make. The owl lives in a very specific specific habitat, which is the very same habitat which the lumber companies wish to clear. The habitat contains some of the oldest trees in North America taking hundreds of years to grow. Japan imports approximately 16 billion dollars worth of lumber every year .Since lumber prices have increased increased in the United'States due fo ' % the reduced supply cause by the Spotted Spotted Owl, Canadian lumber has become become more attractive. This will create more jobs in Canada and is beneficial, but if we do not look towards towards ' the Spotted Owl, and the present predicament of the species, we hare in Canada with poor planning planning may be in a similar predicament very shortly. Future planning is crucial to the survival of everyone, the sooner we begin to plan for the future; not three years, or ten years, but fifty years, and three hundred years will be begin to lessen our environmental impact upon the planet which supports us. Earth week is a time to reflect, reflect upon your children, and your children's children's and even further still, and there is the true future of Canada. While it may not be possible to suddenly change everything here in Canada and the rest of the world, we many begin to change the world around our homes and town. The steps may seem slow, but eventually we may get there if everyone docs their part, so please consider the future future of your children, and your children's children's children and plant a tree during during Earth Week.
