MMBC? Mini Material BC

So far, as recyclables continue to accumulate--prior to the May 19th launch of the area's new recycling program--items that my location recycles have proven a definite FAIL to the program.

Printed material isn't a problem...newspapers and periodicals and flyers.

Paper printed material isn't a problem...mostly flyers and unsolicited material.

But it's the "plastic" bin that's the problem.

Each of the items shown in the plastic bin--with the exception of the bleach bottle--is not allowed under the MMBC recycling program.

But all were accepted under the program that's being abandoned.
No plastic overwrap from bottled water or Gatorade flats (we always buy in bulk), no ice cube bags, no plastic shopping bags, no plastic bread or buns bags.  So those items will be removed before I place the bin at the curb at the program's inception.

"The new program is disgraceful," says Kia, adding "landfills will take the unnecessary hit."

Poorly conceived by the Big Boys.  Corporate multinationals (out of Ontario) telling the B.C. government how they'll run recycling on the British Columbia government's behalf.

Ya sure.

Obviously a low biorhythm day when Christy Clark approved this nonsense!
