National Sweater Day and Earth Hour PledgeThursday February 09, 2012
http://www.wwf.ca
WWF-Canada is thrilled to invite you to participate in two events launching early 2012: National Sweater Day and Earth Hour. These events aim to engage Canadians in a fun and celebratory way while raising awareness about climate change and encouraging individual behaviour change.
On February 9th, 2012, for National Sweater Day, turn down your heat and turn up your sweater! We are calling on Canadians to turn down their thermostats and wear a fun sweater to symbolize their commitment to the environment.
On March 31st, 2012 between 8:30 - 9:30 pm, turn off your lights for Earth Hour. Year over year Canada has remained a leading country in terms of participation. For us the moment of Earth Hour is a bit like an environmental New Year, providing a chance to reflect on how our planet is fairing and what new or renewed commitments we can make to help.
There are a multitude of things that divide people: gender, nationality, race, political and religious beliefs to name a few. But when it comes to fighting climate change, it doesn't matter who we are or where we're from - we're all on the same team. This is our opportunity to ignite change and ensure that Canada is on the right path for future generations, our economy and the planet.
Pledge your commitment and support for WWF's National Sweater Day and Earth Hour and make sure these dates are in your calendar for 2012.

Blue Box Program - ChangeThursday July 28, 2011
http://www.quintewastesolutions.com
As you know Quinte Waste Solutions began as, and will continue to be, a Blue Box program. The advantages of having our collection crews complete a partial curbside sort via the blue box has enabled this area to have an above average recycling material capture rate. This also has allowed us to continue to use the smaller, less mechanized MRF and maintain a lower residual rate at that MRF.
Unfortunately there has been a noticeable increase in the number of residents using bags to set out recyclables, often mixed. We have attempted to accommodate this but the bags have to be opened and emptied on the sort lines at the MRF which causes slowdowns plus there is often garbage mixed in.
In order to regain our effectiveness and efficiency we will be reaffirming our blue box only philosophy at the curb; and after October 17, 2011 will no longer accept clear/clear blue (transparent) bags of recycling, except for clean shredded or non-shredded office paper.
The use of a grocery bag to set out newspaper and magazines as well as a grocery bag to set out other grocery bags is still an acceptable method to set out those two materials.
Over the next two months we will be communicating this message to residents throughout our service area, through local newspapers, radio, and online through our social networks.
We will also be targeting those residents currently using bags, by providing a leave behind in the form of a sticker that we will be affixing to blue boxes where bags are currently being collected up until October 17, 2011.
