A Facebook friend of mine attempts to explain why we are living with our one size fits all / black bag garbage/recycling curb side pick up and haul away system. It supports oil companies that are buying up plastic manufacturing companies so they can stay in business and make piles of cash. It supports big hauling trucks that require lots of fuel, it supports the ‘lazy’ aspect of the human experience so we can toss away our coffee cups and fast food containers to prioritize ...our busy schedules over the future of our earth. Incidentally, he ran a recycling centre for several years: Our regional government use the wrong type of consultants and they have been fixated with Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) stewardship without understanding how incineration has been introduced through of the EPR programs. In essence, where we were on the cutting edge of being a Zero Waste community, to now, where after 15 years, we've no Zero Waste policies, only a a big city curbside collection option, no reuse, no repair, no home composting. Very very sad to see how fast we're going backwards as a community while paying more and getting less https://plasticoceans.org
