It's the way of the future, so we may as well get with the times.
Recycle Saskatchewan has introduced a new website aimed at making information about recycling options easily available to consumers, by answering any questions from the residents of Saskatchewan regarding recycling.
With the impending introduction of multi-material recycling, as well as recycling changes at the municipal level, Recycle Saskatchewan says it seeks to be a "central hub" and trusted voice in recycling, by providing the public with ease of information during this potentially confusing time.
"We are looking to leverage the members' collective knowledge to become a one stop shop for information on recycling in Saskatchewan," says Joan Meyer, Program Manager for Recycle Saskatchewan.
Recycle Saskatchewan is the umbrella organization for product management programs in Saskatchewan including Saskatchewan Association for Resource Recovery Corp (SARRC), Saskatchewan Paint Recycling Program (SPRP), Saskatchewan Scrap Tire Corp (SSTC), SWEEP/EPRA Saskatchewan (electronic products recycling), and SARCAN (beverage containers).
The new web platform allows for consumers to receive a timely response to their recycling questions from the members of Recycle Saskatchewan.
"Our program acts as a unified voice for these stewardship organizations," adds Meyer, "and supports the province-wide cause of creating a recycling-minded culture within the province."
Recycle Saskatchewan also serves as a mentor for new product stewards that are being developed within the province. The collective expertise and knowledge of Recycle Saskatchewan will allow for the continued success of end-of-life product recycling in the province.
In addition it has announced a new brand, which identifies Recycle Saskatchewan as its own entity and will be added to all the marketing materials of its members.
