Laura J. kichards From Page 2 Think about what garbage is. At my home, garbage is: vegetable peelings; peelings; packaging from products like cereal; cereal; the plastic skin from a tofu package; package; cal do-do and used litter; things that have unfortunately died at the back of the fridge; the plastic tubes from the goat cheese; the little plastic twisty tilings from bread bags; bread bags (you can only wash and keep so many), and the list continues. in my search, I have called people in Lindsay, Orillia and spots in between. between. Speaking with Don Barkey, the Manager of the Environmental Division Division of the Town of Lindsay, I discovered discovered that their rigid plastics program was downloaded in early October to lake only plastics which had screw tops. This means containers like vinegar vinegar or bleach bottles can be recycled. However, no small tubs were permitted. permitted. So, the search continued. A call to Milton Wallace in the Lindsay area helped with a number in Orillia for the Citizens Acting Now (CAN). While I was unable to contact CAN, I did speak with Vincent Cla- son, of the Orillia Plastic Sorting Facility, Facility, who was able to give me a handle handle on what is happening in that area of the province. However, I was still without a place you and I could take our small plastic tubs. A phone call to Jill Bontoft of Ajax quickly solved the problem. The Ajax-based 'All R's' program is based on a program similar to Waste Wise in Georgetown. It will help take a number of products out of the waste stream. While the All R's program will only be for the western regions of Durham at first, (where the majority of the population is, said Bontoft) I am sure folks with friends in those areas areas will be adding a few things to their friends' reusables and recycla- bles. Bontoft said some of the products they will be looking for are coat hangers, hangers, reparable appliances and others to cannibalize for parts, egg cartons, eye glasses, small plastic tubs, and all grades of paper and paper products including including box board (from cereal and other boxes). Going the extra mile, they will look at taking furniture, and building supplies. The organizers will also be putting together a waste exchange for companies. companies. As Bontoft looks at things, one company's waste could be another company's resource. All Rs will also be seeking markets markets for the recyclable materials that will be brought in. As you read this column, Bontoft and her group are working on gathering gathering funding from the Ministry of the Environment through the Town of Ajax. While funding is limited, she is hopeful. Bontoft is also seeking donations of office equipment, services and time from businesses. When all the organizing is completed, completed, she hopes to have a "one-stop" exchange set up for area residents. To volunteer your time to this worthwhile cause, give Bontoft a call at (905) 686-0633. This is such a great idea. After all, garbage is just another word for discards. discards.
