Garbage, Garbage Everywhere!



Requests for major landfill expansions in Southwestern Ontario, near Belleville and in Ottawa.

Talk of incineration also in Ottawa, as well as Toronto, Durham Region, and in the Hamilton, Niagara area.

400 truckloads a day of waste to Michigan from Toronto, Peel, Durham and York Regions, as well as recently, Owen Sound. Not to mention from Institutions, Commercial operations and Industry from across S.W. and Central Ontario.

It seems the issue of "waste" and our seeming inability to divert more of it has never been greater.

The Ontario Chapter is extremely active in the promotion of waste diversion.
