Environment

When Rama had an Enviormental group , which i was chair of. We were looking  at ways of saving our Band money in the way of different energy sources. the fire hall and new day care had not been built yet and asked that C&c take into consideration solar panels for energy., for all new buildings. Just common scenes, We also wanted by-laws to protect our wetlands, we wanted community composting, and  recycling program that would have made money not cost us would have created jobs and add much more life time to the landfill. When i walk around Rama at night i see empty buildings with lights on and we are heating these buildings .The  Environmental group wanted our children to have there own peace garden at the school, to have them compost and  have there own gardens. WE wanted a environment dept, that would look at the impact to the land and water before anything was built .Enviornmental programs in the school and wind power for the community. I left after i realized that i was banging my head against the wall . We did get a recycling program in Rama but one that is failing.
