fall into “biodegradable waste.” In Cana-

is biodegradable and approximately 97
per cent of solid waste disposal goes

threat from the biodegradable waste is
the methane production through decom-

increase of environmental footprints such
as greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Ac-
cording to Canada’s Greenhouse Gas In-

an landfills and it accounts for 23 per cent
of national methane emissions in 2019.

However, it is beneficial in vegetation, par-
ticularly in forestry by supplying required

The modified forms of the waste, such
as biochar, have been also investigated

lowered potential concern of secondary

A debate has come out in applica-

their harmlessness in the aspect of sec-

On the other side of efforts to recycle
waste for environmental remediation
and restoration, the fancy sounding en-
vironmental remediation materials, such
as nanotechnology based reactive chemi-

frameworks (MOFs) based sequestering
agents, have been developed to deal
with conventional and emerging contam-

A Guide for Environmental
Experts in Legal Proceedings
E
By Wally Braul, Maya Stano, Mark Youden, and Josh Jantzi, Gowling WLG
Environmental disputes often turn
on complex interdisciplinary issues.
Environmental legal proceedings
commonly become a “battle of the
experts,” which is why it is crucial
that experts be adequately prepared
to be of effective use in resolving le-
gal disputes.
Role of an expert
In legal proceedings, an expert is
qualified by special skill, knowledge,
training, or experience. Before a court
or tribunals determine the academic
credentials or professional qualifica-
tions required of an expert in a given
case. An expert’s role and duties vary
depending on whether an expert is re-
tained as an advisor and/or a witness.

Adapting to Climate
Change Challenges?
W
By Gisalène Carl, AScT, EP, Regulatory Compliance Manager, Envirogreen Technologies
We all know the world’s climate is
changing. In British Columbia, these
changes were evidenced in 2021’s heat
dome, forest fires, and flooding events.
Looking back, how prepared were we?
As Regulatory Managers, what could
we have done better within our various
organizations to better prepare for the
events of 2021? How are we prepar-
ing for the next potentially catastrophic
event?
Climate change is impacting us in
ways that we anticipated and ways we
did not. Fortunately, humans can adapt
very quickly to their environment; this
flexibility is aptly captured in the idiom
“necessity is the mother of invention.”
Progressive organizations will sup-
port their Regulatory Managers as
they improve their practices based on
learnings from 2021. Dust-generating
