Great Film! If our common narrative, the stories we tell each other and ourselves, didn't revolve around exploitation and endless homo-centric growth, we would not have to "learn" to be part of the natural world - we would recognize this fact naturally. Stories matter. Change the story - change the world.

Thank You. This is a beautiful presentation. I met John O'Riordan on a tour at the Duncan Polis Conference about 10 years ago. As an Improvement District, we were looking for support of our small Twin Lake Waterway (tributary to Park Rill and the Okanagan River) & the logged Horn Creek Watershed. We have made progress over the years in understanding our waterway, which unfortunately came from 2 serious floods and a drought. Our understanding has given us a firm commintment to work for a solution to mitigate the floods & droughts by restoring the wetland & overflow outlet that once existed. Unfortunately because we are an Improvement District we have no government financial support so it is a huge undertaking for only 69 property owners.

We need the federal environment minister to watch this, and caution that water conservation is going to be the most important issue to be considered in all decisions about electricity production across the country. Melting glaciers and destruction of wetlands to accommodate developments like housing will put the whole environment at risk. 1:01:40

Although this sounds reasonable and like an appropriate action. I am no chemist, but I do understand how this solves the micro plastics, but I do not understand how this gets rid of lead. If it is not a perfect solution, that is fine, but this paints it as a perfect solution. If it is then understanding what happens to all the toxins is important. Maybe the lead and other metals will melt and be collected from the bottom of the containment. But understanding the process is important before signing on to the process. Most bad things that get voted in because of public pressure come from a group saying what where doing has all these flaws, what we propose has all these advantages without the negatives of the new system and positives of the old system being stated. In short, I agree with this in principle, but do not know enough to take any actions. Perhaps attach more complete information as a link in the footnotes.

​@@creativelyunited , I am not sure where on any of these links is shown how lead and mercury are treated. Both are elements so will not break down any further. I do understand how more complex molecules break down when extreme heat is applied. However when heat is applied the elements are still there and can react to cause other harmful chemicals. What is the chemical makeup of the biochar that would come from the CRD? I do not see this nor any comparables from other regions. This information is easy to have searchable, easier than making a video. Just like the CRD any critique of them can also be misleading. If this information is unknown or intentionally hidden, either way, this would be a red flag. I am sorry if I am missing this and it is there, but searching for mercury or lead shows me nothing as to how these are being dealt with. Referring your audience to websites to find information for themselves is as unhelpful as me saying CRD explains how to do something on their site, just go take a look. Again I think this is probably a better alternative, but if it is, it is ideal provide all the facts, both good and bad so we can make an educated choice.

Thank you for your question. We are working with a thermal conversion plant expert to create an easily digestible FAQ sheet to answer these kinds of questions and hope to have that available sometime next week. In the meantime, here is some information that may help: Heavy metals such as lead and mercury will be incorporated into the biochar which is produced through thermal conversion of biosolids. The concentration of these heavy metals will depend on their concentration in the original biosolids. CRD is regulated by Ministry of Environment to produce Class A biosolids so the metal concentration has to be within strict regulations. Biochar can be used for two purposes. If the metal content is low, biochar can meet Canadian Agricultural Soil criteria set by Agriculture Canada and be applied to land. However, the regulation requires constant monitoring of soils to ensure metal concentrations are below regulated amounts. If the metal concentration in biochar exceeds agricultural soil standards, then the biochar can be used only for industrial purposes such as an additive for cement or concrete.

​@@creativelyunited​, That sounds like a good answer. Being someone that is finding too much lack of transparency in this kind of thing, on any side of these debates, I find they attack on lead and mercury misleading when you are proposing doing what they are doing already. It is fair to do so if you explain the differences in how you handle it. But either way too high of levels will not go into the landfill. But by saying it is a problem and not show the differences both bad and good for your side, it can appear disingenuous. I suggest that you have a short 1 pager showing the various chemicals and why for the most part it is better, but being open and honest about where they are the same. Currently it sounds like you are saying you are solving the problem, and in many cases you are, but I know chemistry enough to get why. Knowing the toxins, and what they turn into is very important to make an informed decision. Currently your literature is striving for a passion based uninformed decision. This is the same tactic that is being used in the USA politics today. Sure it works, but it isn't moral. In the end I support the idea, but I really would like to see more of a transparent approach to add trust.

@@creativelyunited Although it is being promoted as somewhat of a silver bullet, there is a significant absence of information around "thermal conversion." First of all "thermal conversion" is not a single process. Broadly speaking it refers to pre-process heat used to convert Class B "wet" biosolids to Class A biosolids, pyrolysis, gasification, and combustion. Within those categories there are heat ranges and variability of feedstock inputs, process outputs and ash residuals. "Waste to energy" is not a simple thing either. It was self-evident going in that the LaFarge solution would not work. Biosolids have barely enough calorific value to support self-combustion, carry a 25% ash residual, and in the granular form produced at Hartland are not compatible with the LaFarge plant equipment. They also have a high slagging and flue stack residual, and the ash can not be integrated into concrete without negatively impacting compliance with engineering standards. The concentrates in ash can also bleed out of concrete into the environment. That being said, one thing is certain - who in their right mind would spread it on their garden? That is a useful yardstick to put land application in context. It's a flat non-starter. Better to have left it distributed in the legacy septic tanks.

Well, the issue of "climate change" is a political bungle and we all know that, the world itself has cycles of heat and cold that last approximately a century and that has been highly documented for the last 500 years, everyone knows the terrible heat that occurred throughout the world about 300 years ago that even vines grew in Bergen in Norway above the Arctic Circle and in Spain and Italy people and animals died from the heat in the streets and fields, and birds fell from the sky. sky killed by the hot air, all over the world tragedies were reported among people due to that terrible period of heat, MUCH HOTTER THAN WHAT WE ARE GOING THROUGH NOW, and it is also well known how cold there was between the 18th and 19th centuries. which were so terrible that the River Thames in London froze to such an extent that houses and buildings were built on the frozen water of the river believing that the cold would never go away, and that the sea on the Isle of Man froze miles out to sea. that the docks were of no use, it was so cold that the Nile delta in Egypt was all frozen and the Nile could not be navigated, and there were so many ice floes in the Mediterranean Sea that many ships sank after colliding with those floes, All over the world there were records of the tragedies that the cold caused for a long time and that is very documented SO DON'T INSIST WITH THAT SHIT THAT "CLIMATE CHANGE" IS SOMETHING MADE BY MAN BECAUSE IT IS NOT, but all of that It is a political move that seeks MONEY DERIVED FROM TAXES, and the more politicians refer to it, the more FALSE IT IS so don't be too quick to insist on something we all know is FALSE. Another thing is the wonderful house that they built with those innovative methods and that seem very good, I really liked the possibility of using materials that seem very very durable (they said 500 years, that is excellent) and with ease of construction of the building and of how easy it would be to maintain the house, amazing method, dudes, really great I would like to know the cost of building a large house like that, surely there is a cost estimate per square meter because from what I see it would cost cheaper than a traditional wood or concrete building and would have a much longer life expectancy compared to those others old building materials I congratulate you for sharing your experiences and this new way of building, greetings

The Earth is cooler with the atmos/GHGs/albedo not warmer. To perform as advertised the GHGs require “extra” energy upwelling from the surface radiating as a black body. (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZrCZndpokr-rXYk.html) The kinetic heat transfer processes of the contiguous atmos molecules render that scenario impossible. No greenhouse effect, no GHG warming, no man/CO2 driven climate change or Gorebal warming.

Cool house. BUT, single family homes are significantly more energy intensive than multi family homes. And living rurally requires more travel and shipping which also equals more energy used. And they could be completely comfortable in a house 1/4 the size. I'm glad they built this beautiful house they're proud of. But the "climate crisis" virtue signaling feels a bit stupid and slightly hypocritical.
