The Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy is looking for feedback to inform their policy approach concerning the recycling of packaging, plastic and paper products from institutions, commercial businesses, and industry in the non-residential sector (ICI).
While most people in British Columbia have access to recycling at home, up to half of packaging used outside the home is being sent to landfills. This includes at sites like offices, schools, restaurants and stores.
The “Preventing Waste Outside of the Home” questionnaire has been released to the public to obtain feedback regarding access to recycling options when individuals are at ICI locations. This survey also looks at factors impacting individual’s waste reduction habits outside of the home.
This questionnaire should take about 5-10 minutes to complete and is open until July 23, 2024 at 4:00 PM.
