72.8 Prevention of Waste of Natural Resources
Whereas, Industrial states are built upon the concept of continued economic expansion; and,
Whereas, This factor has resulted in wasteful misuse of natural resources; and,
Whereas, Our natural resources are finite; therefore,
RESOLVED, That the National Council of Women of Canada urge the Provincial Councils to request Provincial Governments
to develop measures which will prevent wasteful use of such natural resources, and to develop alternate concepts
of economic stability to bring man into harmony with his environment; and, further,
RESOLVED, That the National Council of Women of Canada urge the Government of Canada, in consultation with the provinces
and municipalities, to research the development of effective methods of waste retrieval and re-circulation.
