If you must burn

Letters

Editor:

With the cooler weather comes an increase in the use of wood to heat our homes. But do you know what that smoke is doing to your health and that of your neighbours and the environment? 

On Tuesday, Nov. 27, from 1:30 p.m. at the Sechelt Library, I will be discussing the wood stove exchange program. You can earn $400 for decommissioning your old, heavily polluting wood burning stove or fireplace; $650 is available if you live in the District of Sechelt and convert to a heat pump. 

If you must continue to burn wood, I will have tips on how to do so more cleanly. 

I hope to see you there but if you cannot make it, please contact me at [email protected] for further info.
