2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville. November 9, 1988 Important Role for Recycling From Page One diapers. Or, better yet, why not use cloth diapers? Consumers should be wary of buying buying heavily-packaged items, preferring preferring to buy things m bulk or in larger quantities. Items can be purchased with a view to their re-usability. For instance, yogurt containers can be utilized for cupboard storage after they are emptied. Motorists can recycle used motor oil. Offices and households can recycle most envelopes and paper provided they are not made from glossy paper stock and provided that the envelopes and papers do not contained gummed labels or plastic windows. Industries can recycle cardboard and other products products which would otherwise contribute towards overflowing landfill sites. - At the moment, the curbside blue box system is limited to recycling glass, metal and newsprint. However, However, the GOOD (Garbage of Ontario Diminished) Committee is also looking looking at the possibility of recycling plastics and has received a grant to do S' study. During Recycling Week, there will be further information provided through various projects organized by the week's volunteer co-ordinators. Bumper stickers containing the words "We Recycle" will be provided at various reception desks in the Town of Newcastle and the municipality municipality will be donating books on recycling recycling to the public library. The town's three libraries will also be producing special displays on the theme of recycling. Mrs. MacDonald goes on to note that Women's Institutes are using waste management as their theme for the year. The co-ordinators are also writing various schools in Newcastle to encourage them to join in the recycling recycling effort. "Our mandate is to increase public awareness and public participation," said Mrs. MacDonald. And the co-ordinators also hope that in doing so they will discourage the future location of a metro Toronto landfill site in the Town of Newcastle. Newcastle. They feel that if the town can set a good example of wise waste management, management, it is less likely to become the site of a Metro or Durham-wide landfill landfill operation. While progress has been made in recycling, much remains to be done. Consider, for example, the following following facts provided by the Recycling Council of Ontario: Every person in Ontario produces about 2.2 pounds of garbage each day. And, if you squeezed one year's worth of one person's person's garbage into one garbage can, it would be close to 200 feet high. Local government, environmental groups and a growing number of "average" "average" citizens are convinced that it's time each one of us took steps to reduce the pile of trash we inflict upon the environment environment every day of our lives. Recycling Week is a good time to concentrate on the ways of accomplishing accomplishing that goal.
