We have made no secret of our support for a carbon tax, a toxics tax, a return to resource rentals in fisheries, levies on waste to landfill, and a range of other eco-taxes. |
The aim is to achieve environmentally sound management and reduced use of toxics and chemical wastes. |
The second line of defense against avoidable carcinogenic exposures is the reduction or phase-out of toxics in use. |
Some other air toxics are metals or compounds of metals for example, mercury, arsenic, and cadmium. |
They made diesel engines that they knew would pollute, chugging out tons of toxics that cause everything from respiratory diseases to cancer. |
Drinking water is in short supply, due to contamination by toxics and salt. |
