First off they are not ontarios great lakes as ontario doesn't even touch lake michigan. Secondly in what way do you mean they are a mess? is it from invasive species? Pollution? over development? etc...?\nThirdly their are many agencies doing research and clean up efforts on all 5 of the great lakes including the International joint commision a bi-national orginization formed by canadian and U.S. governments in the mid 1800's

Repuglican idea: screw you get your own. \nDemocrat idea: national health care set up on the order of Canada or England.

Kids:\n\nI hope you get this. Sorry for the mess, we were busy building things and didn't really pay attention to how much of the natural resources we were using.\n\nI know it's hot, but even though the tropical regions are now uninhabitable, the rising temperatures have made much of the polar regions tolerable. Granted, there's not as much land because of all the glacial melting, but at least it'll keep the oceans replenished for the new fish that are replacing the species that died off.\n\nBefore I forget, the fire in the middle east desert should die down before too long. I guess they weren't expecting one little nuclear weapon to cause that much damage or set the entire oil fields on fire. But, at least you won't have to worry about middle eastern politics, since there is no middle east anymore. \n\nBut, since more of Canada is now inhabitable, you'll still have that oil, and with the warmer temperatures, there won't be as much need for heating fuel.\n\nI know what you're thinking. How could we let it get this bad. I guess we just weren't paying attention. With the terrorist threats and all -- no, they really aren't hiding in the closet or under the bed. We took care of them. Well, a few of them, at least. \n\nI have to go now. The global satellite surveillance will pick this up before long. And since criticizing the government became punishable by death, this will probably be the last transmission I can send. \n\nWe miss you, and tell your siblings in the creche that we're sorry.

The housing market has turned into a buyer market so I would say the prices are very negotiable.  On Lake Ontario would be a good place to buy a home.  I don't know about Brighton, how about Henrietta.

Not if you move to Northern Canada, and live in the wild. There are chain of lakes up there with plenty of wildlife and food sources. You could build a cabin, or maybe just find an abandoned one. It's real possible, unless your a sissy and have to live with Capitalism.

?\n\nif people want to keep careret county (wherever that is) the way it is, then development could be viewed as bad.

Sure sounds like a plan...can we do chippendales instead? They really need to be saved.

In what way are we doomed?\n\nSocial program overspending? passing Medicare responsibilty onto the provinces? political corruption? higher taxes? not paying down the deficit? lost departmental money (in the billions)? cronyism in appointments? increase in quebec separatism or western Canadian alientation? rediculous language laws? unfair equalization program? federal business corruption in Quebec? no repealing GST and other middle income taxes? regional favouritism?\n\nThis is Cretien's legacy.\n\nSorry but your question is melodramadic and no we are not doomed.

Better to team up with existing efforts (e.g. Great Lakes Peace Mission) than start something from scratch, I think.

Add the area you need like Muskoka, Metro, Parry Sound, etc. You might get a better response. 400 auto wreckers used to have a small area for snowmobiles.

Solutions to the water crisis—and most environmental problems—require changes in attitudes. People need to be cooperative rather than selfish, to make reasonable sacrifices where necessary, and to be determined to take care of the earth for its future inhabitants.\n\nSuch "a water ethic," of course, requires more than just a local approach. Countries as well as neighbors need to cooperate, since rivers are no respecters of national boundaries. \n\nClearly, an adequate supply of good water—although vital—is not all that is needed if we are to enjoy a healthy and happy life. Humans must first recognize an obligation to the One who provided both water and life itself.

this would be interesting except for your last point.  Look at our system.  We already have one in place and its not working. The Executie Branch has gained a ton of power and the Leg and Jud brances have lost their power.  It's become about helping each other out instead of maintaining balance.  Otherwise your outline exists in Canada.

let's see, cutting down canada's ancient boreal forests by kimberly-clark so they can make KLEENEX, disgraceful.\ncutting down forests to expand factory farming only so that the animals can be slaughtered. horrifying.  by far it is human selfishness and lack of education that is destroying our world.

The need of the hour is to manage waste well because inefficient waste management could cause irreparable damage to the environment. \n\n\n“Those who think that sustainability is only a matter of pollution control\nare missing the bigger picture. \nWe are poised at the threshold of an historic moment \nin which many of the world’s industries may be transformed.” \n\ncheck out this link:\n\nhttp://www.deccanherald.com/deccanherald/nov82005/snt1732152005117.asp\n\nu can check out some examples of wealth from waste products by clicking on the following link\n\nhttp://www.books-directory-projectreports.com/pdf/wealth-from-waste-products.pdf\n\nSolid waste management poses stupendous problems as well as unlimited opportunities for turning waste into wealth. The environmentalist concern for containing pollution levels and conserving non-renewable natural resources has focussed attention on the three R’s, namely Reduce, Reuse and Recycle waste materials. A careful study of the progress made by Metro Toronto in Solid Waste Management (SWM) reveals eye opening information for those who would like to enter the recycling market for starting potentially lucrative businesses. The SWM division of Metro Toronto manages about 5 million tons of waste per annum of which 3 million tons are disposed at land fills, leaving 2 million tons that was diverted from land fills for recycling. Land fills are not the answer to the problem of SWM due to the growing population and urbanization. The real answer lies in stepping up the rate of diversion from land fills to achieve the three R’s.\n\nMetro Toronto ranks as one of the largest municipalities in N. America and one of the few that have a well chartered plan and programme for stepping up the pace of recycling. This has given rise to a thriving recycling industry comprising more than 1000 small, medium and large businesses such as haulers, brokers, processors, recyclers, suppliers of waste reduction equipments, customised collection system designers, wholesale pick up services, confidential document shredders, waste audit consultants, energy conversion units, drum re-conditioners, converters, compactors, etc. in Ontario province alone. Some of them are manufacturers-cum-recyclers engaged in ‘closed loop’ recycling in manufacturing activities like plastic compounding, paper, insulation tapes, moulded paper, cryogenic recycling of rubber and plastics, wiping cloth, fire logs, culets from glass wastes, composting, scrap metal smelting, solvent recycling etc. Metro Toronto has set a target of 90% diversion by the year 2030 from the present level of 40%. This will open up vast frontiers in recycling business making it highly beneficial to Man and Nature, besides the great potential of generating employment and income.\n\nA glance at the financial picture of Metro Toronto’s SWM will make one appreciate the truism behind the concept of wealth from waste. Metro Toronto’s annual revenue from SWM has matched its expenditure of about $150m in recent years thus giving zero net expenditure. Much of the municipality’s revenue comes from land fill management fees levied by it. With no more land fills available and growing community protests against it, the pace of recycling will be stepped up by persuasive, compulsory and punitive measures to achieve the target of zero land fills. The municipality has taken appropriate measures like increasing the number of waste materials that will be prohibited from land fills such as cardboard, wood, metals, paper, etc. The list will soon become so exhaustive as to cover the entire spectrum of industrial, commercial and institutional wastes and will call for total recycling of all wastes in the years to come. The ratio of virgin to recycled input in industries which is about 8 to 2 at present will get reversed by the ceaseless pursuit of environment protection. The stringent curbs on land fills through steep hikes in SWM fees for disposal at land fills has actu

there are no simple solutions to the problems in africa. some problems with your solution are: how can people transport such large amounts of water? where will it come from? who will pay for it? will the country be expected to pay it back? etc.
