Waste Reduction Week: October 19-25th, 2020
Mayor Doug Lawrance has proclaimed the week of October 19-25th as Waste Reduction Week in Sioux Lookout.
From October 19th to October 25th the Municipal Environment Committee invites you to participate on Facebook by sharing your “Best Practices” for reducing waste.
New for 2020!
To recognize pillars of a circular economy, we will have daily themes, kicking off the week with broader circular economy ideas. The weekdays will engage you on key issues: e-waste, plastics, food waste. The weekend will include extending the life of these products by the sharing economy-swapping, repairing. Champions of each theme will be celebrated all week.
We need tried and true advice to help us all keep “waste reduction” at the forefront of our daily habits.
Our event is posted on the official site: http://wrwcanada.com/en with resources, challenges, and information about sponsors who plan to make a difference.
Let’s all join the conversation to reduce waste.
