[All] Should GREN join C.A.U.S.E. ?

Tue Jun 28 16:05:19 EDT 2011

Hello All,As I watch our numbers dwinddle I fear our strong group will struggle to continue. By joining a larger group we put ourselves out there for other's to join and research us. I would support GREN becoming part of their group. In numbers there is strenght.

    Good idea!. As an environmental network for the Grand River, I think
    we must support headwater protection. Even if all the data is not
    in, there are enough troubling details in this MegaQuarry plan to be
    very disturbing.  It will affect us in ways we can and cannot
    predict. There is a complete ignorance of the complexity of
    ecosystems and climate change.  Norah

        fyi - CAUSE has written a great review of why an EA is required.
        I handed it out to City Council last night. You can download it
        at

        (with further resources available at

        Another great source of information is the online petition:

                Hi folks

                  I came
                        across an umbrella called C.A.U.S.E, the
                        Citizens Alliance for Sustainable Environment.
                        Their website is here:  http://www.citizensalliance.ca/Cause-proposal.html
                  They have an
                        excellent website regarding the Highland Quarry
                        proposal that is simple, clear with great visual
                        appeal. NDACT is already a member. 

                  I highly encourage
                        GREN members to view the founders of this group.
                        They are made up of Lawyers, business
                        executives, directors of various groups.
                        Outstanding expertise:
                  http://www.citizensalliance.ca/PDFS/About%20Us.pdf  

                        I wanted to
                            relay this info to GREN members to see if
                            they'd like to formally become a part of
                            this group. By lending our logo to the
                            membership it shows greater public support
                            over a larger demographic sending the
                            important message that this is a Watershed
                            wide concern.

                        Just wanted to
                            relay for GREN's consideration. Contact info
                            is info at citizensalliance.ca
