Located in the Malvern neighbourhood of Scarborough, this highrise is showing how zero waste is possible: with over 1000 residents, this building is generating only one dumpster of garbage per month!

Organics (such as food scraps and other compostables) are a valuable resource: through composting organics, we recycle their valuable nutrients to support healthy soils, and in some cases, create green energy and green jobs!

On July 4th, Council unanimously passed TransformTO, an ambitious new climate action plan with bold actions to tackle emissions that will also benefit Torontonians.

Over three dozen groups and notable Torontonians have united to send a letter to Mayor Tory and City Councillors to show support for the bold new climate action plan that will be voted on at City Council.

Every day, hundreds of workers in all parts of Toronto do the hard - and often dangerous - work of picking up our garbage, recycling, organics, yard waste and heavy bulky furniture and appliances. Waste workers are doing an important green job and they’re part of the green circular economy, getting our waste and recyclables to the right place!
