RE: dam-l How green BC Hydro?



Dianne,

Just a quick correction.  BC Rivers day is not a BC Hydro initiative,
but is coordinated by the Outdoor Recreation Council.  It is "an annual,
province wide celebration of BE's river heritage"."Community events an
activites such as river clean ups, historical tours, paddling trops, art
and photoo exhibits, writing competitions, riverside picnics, fish
hatchery tours, stream habitat surveys, habitat resotiration, and
community festivals are initiated by individuals, clubs and
organizations all around the province." text from a brochure titled The
Heritage Rivers Bulletin.

BC Hydro's online site is being revamped.  I got attached message
yesterday
and took a look just now and there are a couple of interesting pages,
one
on an initiative called "RiversDay", and another in the "virtual
ecologist's"
section on one of their projects - > restoration of a salmon stream.

Might be worth a peak.

On one hand I think this is a good thing but on the other I wonder how
much
is window dressing to make them seem greener.  Perhaps they are leading
the way
for other utilities?

:-/

wondering,
 -Dianne
