The opportunity for ecycler.ca to improve recycling rates in Canada is huge, particularly in rural areas and in cities that only offer curb-side pick-up for single-family detached homes.

Although access to recycling programs in Canada has improved over the years, not all provinces offer equal access to recycling programs. This means there are households that probably want to recycle but won't because there isn't a recycling program available to them, or there are those that do recycle on their own and are paying to get rid of their recyclables.

There are many different statistics and reasoning's that are available here:

Released on July 13th, 2007 this report explains all the different statistics and some of the reasons why recycling hasn't been offered to everyone in Canada in different provinces on an equal basis whether related to income or location. Regardless of those numbers the fact remains that in-spite of the statistics shown on this report, tons of recyclables are still found entering landfills across Canada that could be otherwise recycled and used as renewable resources.

People continue to talk about sustainability, renewable energy, renewable resources, natural resource depletion, and dependence on foreign oil, but are these all catch phrases or can something really be done to help the environment, create jobs, and create a sustainable country in the process? Ecycler.ca believes there is a way that recycling in Canada can be taken to levels never before seen. This can be done by empowering people with knowledge and the ability to engage in a recycling effort that helps the environment and the local community in the process.

Recycling in Canada doesn't have to be a difficult process and everyone should have access to the type of recycling in which they would like to engage. This has been made possible through the efforts of ecycler Canada because this service brings people together that would like to discard thier recyclables with people that collect these items for recycling. Many people already understand the benefits of recycling. They understand that in order to create sustainability, people need to find a way to stop depleting natural resources and begin re-using the resources we already have available through recycling.

But what else can be done? How about jobs? Instead of limiting people on what they have the ability to recycle, how about allowing them to recycle whatever they want. Bottles, plastics, newspapers, glass, appliances, scrap metal, mattresses, junk, electronics, VHS tapes and crayons can all be recycled allowing them to be turned into renewable resources. This process creates instant jobs for collectors, prevents these items from entering landfills which is better for the environment, and provides a means for sustainability preventing the depletion of natural resources.

Recycling in Canada is available for you right now. You are not limited in what can be recycled. You are not limited simply because of your income. You are not limited by your location.
