  • BMN Hike: Grouse Mountain Via Mackay Creek
    BMN HIKE REPORT Grouse Mountain via Mackay Creek (May 16, 2015) by Mark Johnston On the Mackay Creek Trail. Chloe Tu photo. At the start of the May long weekend, five us of gathered for a return trip to the North Shore mountains, this time a hike up much visited Grouse Mountain but by a route that sees relatively little traffic. Our leaders, Rich and Janet, were familiar with the trail; for the rest of us it would be a new path. It was a cloudy day and as the ceiling was fairly low, we wondered whether, higher up the mountain, we would have any views. Our plan was to hike the Mackay Creek Trail to Simic’s Trail and then proceed along the Cut ski run until we reached “The Peak of Vancouver.” Parking at the base of the Skyride, we headed east along the power line right-of-way toward Mackay Creek. As we walked, we took notice of dame’s rocket and buttercup in bloom and enjoyed occasional views of Greater Vancouver. As it would turn out, these would be our only distant views until our descent via the aerial tramway three hours later. Just past the bridge over West Mackay Creek, we left the power line, climbed up the gravelly bank and entered the forest. Initially we stayed quite close to the rocky creek bed, but soon our trail veered east, away from the creek, and after awhile we came within earshot of the East Mackay tributary. Never approaching as closely to this branch, we stayed high on the ridge between tributaries and gained elevation steadily with a minimum of switchbacks.

  • Powering Renewable Energy in Canada and Abroad
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by bepress Legal Repository WINDWIND ENERGY AND ITS IMPACTIMPACT ONON FUTURE ENVIRONMENTALENVIRONMENTAL POLICY PLANNINGPLANNING:::: POWERINGPOWERING RENEWABLERENEWABLE ENERGY IN CANADA AND ABROAD byby KamaalKamaal R. Zaidi INTRODUCTION Given the tremendous pressure of using finite conventional sources of energy, many countries around the world are turning to renewable sources of energy to cushion against rising costs, while diversifying the means of delivering energy to their citizens. Wind energy is one such example of an innovative strategy to provide energy to citizens in a cleaner, abundant and reliable fashion. As society turns away from conventional sources like coal and natural gas (fossil fuels) due to the rising electricity costs and its deleterious impact on the environment, government-sponsored efforts and technological innovation are pushing wind energy to the forefront of creative environmental policy planning. More specifically, government legislation through financial incentives encourages public and private businesses to participate in pursuing renewable energy sources with more vigor. This paper examines the role of wind energy in Canada and abroad in terms of how its growing emergence is being recognized as one of the best methods of implementing sound environmental regimes that are replacing expensive conventional methods of energy extraction and utilization. Part I will examine the history and background of wind energy. Here, an overview of wind energy use in various cultures and time periods will be examined. Part II explains the role of wind energy in the context of the Kyoto Protocol. As part of this global initiative, wind energy is reviewed as to how it contributes to a “green” economy.
