You can make a difference. Personal letters carry a lot of weight with politicians. Pen a few words about your concerns over the proposed pulp mill and ask what they are doing to protect your interests. Ask for a guarantee of compensation for the risks to you or your business from the mill. See
hot tips for top letter writing
Phone calls to local, state and federal members are effective too. Demand help from your politicians.
Make an appointment to see your elected representative to tell them how the proposed pulp mill will affect you.
