In April 2024, we were pleased to present a discussion paper to Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) as part of the development of the framework for implementing the right to a healthy environment.
We invite you to read our document available here:
Three areas of intervention:
Residential wood combustion
Campfires
Commercial wood fired cooking
ECCC has just published on October 5, 2024 a draft framework which will be subject to consultations for 60 days: https://www.canada.ca/en/environment-climate-change/services/canadian-environmental-protection-act-registry/publications/implementation-framework.html
INCREDIBLE: No mention of residential wood burning - leading cause of environmental death in the country!
JOIN us in denouncing this total denial of scientific data on air pollution.
PROTEST by sending your comments by email to healthyenv-envsain@ec.gc.ca with the subject line “Consultation on the CEPA Right to a Healthy Environment Implementation Framework” by December 4, 2024
