Story from CBC News:

Soot from an Ottawa crematorium has been falling and blowing on nearby homes, residents say, making it impossible at times to open their windows or play outside.

The news item goes on to explain the crematorium (owned by Catholic Church) meets emission standards for this type of facility, the reality of the situation seems surreal, most the commenter’s blame the home owners. This seems like a story from decades past not one in a environmentally aware era.

Terrific article on dealing with paper clutter.  Much better idea than my recommendation to throw it all out.
