From waste to worth : the role of waste diversion in the green economy : Minister's report on the Waste Diversion Act 2002 review( )

2 editions published in 2009 in English and held by 50 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Ontarians are passionate about our natural environment, and we both depend on and take pleasure from our natural resources. Those resources are one of the cornerstones of our prosperity and contribute to our high quality of life. However, as a society, we are consuming these precious natural resources at an unsustainable rate. Ontario's waste diversion framework -- the legal and policy tools that promote waste reduction, reuse, and recycling -- was constructed over the last 20 years as a way to give effect to our societal value that we must create less waste and reuse and recycle the waste that we do create. Over the past two decades, municipalities, consumers, and businesses have made real efforts to improve waste diversion, bit by bit increasing the amount of waste that is reused and recycled. However, we continue to generate a significant amount of waste. The vast majority is collected and carted away to landfills where it is buried forever
