Siigalilis, P. Eng. Commissioner of Works High-profile speakers featured Turn-out good for DEN meeting United; and Liz Arm- strong, co-author of Whitewash and' editor of "Connections" newsletter of the Women's Network on Health and the Envi- nonment. A key element high- lighted by the speakers is the need for the public to become involved in the de- bate over the Internation- al Joint Commission's call to the U.S. and Canadian governments to "sunset" the industrial use of chlo- rine. As all three speakers pointed out, the role of chlorine in the creation of PCBs (polychlorinated bi- phenyls), CFCs (chloroflu- orocarbons), PVC (polyvi- nyl chloride), pesticides, solvents, dioxins and pulp bleaching is a public health issue which affects everyone. "When organizations as staid as the International Joint Commission and as provocative as Green- peace agree on a neces- sary societal action, there just has to be something to it," said Dr. Vallentyne. Great Lakes United spokesperson Jay Palter provided details of a "Lit- tle Zeros" workshop GLU 18 sponsoring in Hamilton on May 7. The purpose is to give practical tips to people who would like to achieve zero discharge al- ternatives in the areas of chemical drycleaning, pesticide use, waste incin- eration, hospital pollu- tion, cholorine-bleached paper and sewage treat- ment. More information can be obtained by calling Fe de Leon at (416) 926- 1907 or Jay Palter at (416) 536-1952. DEN has created a handout with the address- es and phone numbers of five environmental organ- izations active on Great Lakes issues. Interested people may call 985-3225 or 509-3156 to request one, or to express interest in becoming part of a Dur- ham Region-based chlo- rine committee. Kinark offers parenting course Is it realistic to assume that when a baby is born the new parent, as if by magic, somehow knows all about child rearing? To- day there is more informa- tion and knowledge avail- able about child growth and development than ever before. Our expecta- tions of the kind of chil- dren we want to raise are so different from even one generation back, that par- ents are eager for skills that will help them in their task of raising re- sponsible children. Chil- dren who feel good about themselves and who can make choices and deci- sions with confidence.
