As Toronto celebrates Earth Day, CBC News wanted to check in on how the city's doing when it comes to recycling our trash.

Watch Emily (starting at 32:35) 

Emily Alfred, TEA's Waste Campaigner - "If we just focus on education and getting people to put things in the right place in the first place, our problem will disappear. It's not a sexy new solution, it's going to take hard work, but I think the results are worth it."

CBC News' Charlsie Agro reported live at 6:00 from Scarborough's Mayfair on the Green condo, where they were celebrating their 90% waste diversion rate with the local MP and TEA staff!
