The Environment MORE GOOD NEWS ABOUT REDUCTION-REUSE-RECYCLING by Janet Banting Inthe first eight months of 1989, 672 tonnes of material were diverted from landfill as a result of the collection of various items at the Brock Township Landfill Site and the three transfer sta- tions (Oshawa, Cartwright, and Scugog). Many people may not be aware of the variety of items that can be dropped off at these locations. At Cartwright and Scugog Transfer Stations and the Brock Township Landfill Site, householders may drop off the following materials in addition to cans, newspapers, and glass: tires, scrap metal, old cor- rugated cardboard, waste oil, propane cylinders, batteries, and white goods. Cartwright and Scugog will also accept plastic garden pots and flats. For those people in areas without blue box pick-up, the good news is that the Region plans to add forty new Since July 1988, when the service became available, seventy- five industries around the Region have contacted the Durham Region Works Department for assistance in reducing waste and locating markets for recyclable materials. You can arrange for a waste audit of your company, free of charge, by calling the Waste Reduction Facilitator at 668-7721. Many local business people are helping to reduce the volume of garbage going to landfill by paying to have materials such as cardboard and wood chips hauled away. Others make organic waste available to local farmers, and ensure that soft drink cans used at work are recycled. Some store owners are beginning to encourage shoppers to bring their own bags when shopping, and at local bulk stores you can fill your own containers as well. The average person can help by looking around the house and thinking a little before throwing things away. In our household, for example, we recently converted an old cabinet stereo and an old cabinet television into drying cupboards for woodworking projects. The children's old crib, which does not meet current safety standards, was hacked apart to make shelves for the drying cupboards. When our wash pail got a hole in it, rather than throw it away, we started using it as a storage pail for potatoes. Our old diaper pail is now the wash pail. These are just a few small examples of the uses you can put things to rather than keaving them into the garbage. Future columns will ide more suggestions on how to create less garbage around the house and when you shop. barrelled handgun.
