In the meantime, Ontario is using law-making to change tire disposal to tire recycling.  At the moment 50% of scrap tires are shipped as fuel in cement making kilns or to the US power plants.  This new legislation means tires will have an end use - upcycling instead of burning.  Ontario processors are increasing capacity to cope with the increase in tire recycling .  Another example of Zero Waste adding to the economy of Canada.  Other provinces take note, especially those with Premiers (B.C. for instance) who talk the green talk but not the walk.

Which brings me to the Earth Day walk on Saturday starting at 12noon, or thereabouts, at the Parliament building in Victoria and ends at Centennial Square were we will all be celebrating our love of this planet.
