The Canadian government plans to regulate the emissions of new wood burning appliances by 2005. This group was formed to discuss the costs and benefits of the plan for Canadians.
The discussion will deal with at least the following questions:
* What appliance categories should be included under the regulation?
* What technical obstacles are there to implementation by 2005?
* Are there social, economic and regional issues that should be addressed first?
* How best can anti-wood burning attitudes be confronted?
* What other actions should supporters of wood burning take to protect their interests as this federal plan goes forward?
