Who wants to take a trip to the Tar Ponds!

I can't say that Canada is without blame, but if you have a look at environmental disaster areas around the world, there are many places that make Canadian problems pale in comparison. There is an interesting site that gives the 51 things that we can all do to help the environment at 51 Things Every bit counts.

I think you hit the nail on the head regarding the biodegradable plastic bags.

My mom grew up next door to the tar ponds, her father worked at the Sydney steel plant for over 30 years.

maybe over time coral and stuff will grow over the bottom of it and make it a stable platform.. a mobile island :)

I dont know why quebec hydro dams are on there. the reason they flood lands like that is because the land has more value as a watershed then a barren piece of tundra......

alot of the reports that were about left overs from steel and coal production..is nothing compared to USA china russia germany, Canada is like #8 for world steel and coal production...

I have family in europe and russia and what they have there dosnt compare to us...

there's no way we have the top 6 worst environmental disaster sites in the world.
compare us to countries with very little regulation and heavy industry (ie, china) and we are saints.

I am going to bet that Windsor, Ontario: the most polluted city in North America has something to do with Detroit being so close....

my vote for dirtiest city would have to be Tijuana.... it is way dirtier than Windsor, hell Detroit is dirtier than Windsor
