We've been consulted by Moscow on waste management and waste reduction. Clearly, our successes have been recognized around the world. The RCO certainly knows this through receiving a United Nations environmental award for the Blue Box. Ontario companies are using their innovations at home, and selling them in the international market. Emery is in the process of modifying this process to be able to use paper bio-solids.
Technology is the great door-opener.
It provides environmental solutions and suggests further possibilities. But, we need the help of municipalities. The door must be opened for creative solutions to waste. One region's waste is another's gold, but we need municipal officials to take these technologies seriously. Technology also closes doors on outdated modes of thinking.
