e-2352 (Environment)
Original language of petition: English
Petition to the House of Commons
- Federally, more needs to be done to accommodate post-consumer waste for second life cycle use for these materials: plastics, plastic packaging, Styrofoam, electronics, etc;
- Currently, Northern British Columbia has restrictions on what can be recycled due to location and demand for these materials, but the wildlife impacts and global environmental focus implore better solutions;
- The “throw-away” temperament cannot sustain, and incentives must be brought forward to promote second life cycle salvage efforts; and
- Incentives could range from monetary reimbursement for consumers to penalties for insubordinate manufacturers or the manufacturing processes.
