Fisherman Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Surprising there hasn't been an uproar over this, plastic factory that makes the "forever" plastics, not good for anything. Once it's in the system, you can't get rid of it. Lets poison some more water bodies. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/sudbury/forever-chemicals-plant-north-bay-1.6910158 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrowMan Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 How am I going to fry my eggs in the morning and stay dry while fishing on a rainy day ? Environmental regulations are some of the most stringent on the.planet in this country...seems like they're following all the rules. People, especially in our smaller population centres, do need good jobs. Also, considering some of the sources of this report (CBC and The Walrus), there's definitely a political agenda at play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted August 28, 2023 Report Share Posted August 28, 2023 But the plant is net zero emissions, they planted some trees and pays their share of the carbon taxes, paying a carbon tax is going to save the world oh and the budget will balance itself 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there's always those "accidental spills" and things that get swept down the sewer which goes...into the waterways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jannick Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 You are right to be concerned about the proposed plastic factory in North Bay, Ontario. The factory would produce PFAS, or "forever chemicals," which are a class of synthetic chemicals that are known to be harmful to human health and the environment. PFAS can accumulate in the body over time and have been linked to a number of health problems, including cancer, thyroid disease, and decreased fertility. They can also contaminate water supplies and harm wildlife. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
