Why Sustainable Development: Just the Facts
-Two thirds of the worlds forests are gone and since 1950 in Canada we have removed 50% of Canada’s forests.
-85% of the world’s fish stocks have been fished out
-since 1970 every species except humans is declining.
- Canada’s production and known reserves of natural gas pecked in the early 90s
- half of the oil on earth has been used
- grain production has been declining since 1985.due to densification in Africa and Australia.
-food grain supplies are shrinking as more grain production goes into ethanol
- Safe drinking water is becoming scarcer.
The Conservative government reduced corporate, personal and GST taxes saving us $60billion but left us with insufficient funds to implement a sustainable environmental policy even if they had one! Prime Minister Harper does not demonstrate that environment matters as shown by his lack of participation in Earth Hour.
Where is the political leadership to save us??

-Two thirds of the worlds forests are gone and since 1950 in Canada we have removed 50% of Canada’s forests. . . . Since 1950 Liberals have been in power for over 40 years.
-85% of the world’s fish stocks have been fished out
since 1970 every species except humans is declining . . . Since 1970 Liberals have been in power for approximately 30 years.
- Canada’s production and known reserves of natural gas pecked in the early 90s . . . Since 1990 Liberals have been in power for over 13 years.
- grain production has been declining since 1985.due to densification in Africa and Australia.
-food grain supplies are shrinking as more grain production goes into ethanol
- Safe drinking water is becoming scarcer.
I think you know where I'm going with this. I guess what you're saying is this inept Conservative government in just one year isn't able to repair the years of neglect by Liberal governments of the past.
