Fact: 90 % of the waste you produce is NOT recycled in Canada. That is a cold fact. Canada actually produces more solid waste per capita than any other country in the world – worse than the United States, Japan, China or the UK. (Global News)

It’s time to do something about this and us as consumers have the power to change it. We have to start with ourselves and our household. Produce less waste, buy products with as little packaging as possible and recycle. We can perfectly control how we recycle at home. But how is your workplace doing with recycling? 

Here at EcoB we believe that our workspace/office space should be aligned with our mission. We were looking for co-working space in the Vancouver area, that has an eco-friendly feeling. At i-onCONNECT, 2700 Production way, Burnaby they have been great at recycling their waste. URBAN IMPACT ranks i-onCONNECT with Silver status. They recycle 95% of all materials generated at this site. To be eco-responsible at your work is as important as your home.

We love this initiative and we support it.

Ask about the recycling program at your work. Research about how your company disposes of the waste you bring or the company produces.
