Plastic Recycling
Kudo’s to Landscape Ontario for their work on the beginning steps to put a Canadian national plastic recycling plan into place.
The hort industry generates a whole bunch of plastic. From the pots and baskets you take home to acres and acres of plastic that cover the greenhouses to trays and plastic propagation units that you never even see. Waste removal of this plastic is a major cost to production nurseries even if they try to recycle their own pots.
So – from a cost standpoint alone, this is a major effort.
From an environmental standpoint, this is really necessary and full marks and a salute with a dip of the shovel to L.O. for their work in this area.
p.s. L.O. was the site for the annual plant trials I attended a few weeks ago.
