[QUOTE="Bushcraft Paddler, post: 7658302, member: 156778"] This is way left of field, but I would really welcome your thoughts. I will also try to keep this as short as possible !! In my daily job I work with Doctors in ICU using inhaled anaesthetics to keep patients in their "induced coma". All sedation is bad for the environment in someway. The Intravenous stuff is poisonous to the patients liver and kidneys and once excreted in urine isn't exactly great in our water system. Similarly inhaled anaesthetic gases if they escape are bad for the air / ozone layer, and equivalent to many times their weight in carbon emissions. The system we employ captures and reflects over 90% of the gas with approximately 3ml an hour leaving the patient and then being captured in a carbon filter. Despite this as part of our environmental campaign and carbon offset I am looking at the feasibility of starting a tree planting scheme for each bottle, box or whatever that is used in ICU. So here is the ask. [INDENT]Is this kind of thing of interest to land owners? [/INDENT] [INDENT]Is it best administered through something like the Woodland Trust or a grant system?[/INDENT] [INDENT]Should I just forget it and think of something else?[/INDENT] [/QUOTE]
