Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Banning of single use PET water bottles has become a growing trend across Canada (Jerema, 2010). There are several reasons as to why this trend has continued to grow, with the bulk of them surrounding the environmental impacts of the PET bottle. The utilization of single-use plastic water bottles is not a sustainable option as it can lead to water shortages since the manufacturing process for a single 1L bottle of water consumes 3-5L of water (The Council of Canadians, 2014). Furthermore, the manufacturing and transportation of single-use PET water bottles is significantly contributing to climate change as they require a massive amount of fossil fuel to produce the plastic and generate significant greenhouse gas emissions to transport (The Council of Canadians, 2014). Another issue associated with single-use plastic bottles and why banning their sales is becoming more significant is that a large number are ending up in landfills, which is resulting in a loss of landfill spaces as well as the loss of the resources that have gone into the production process (The Council of Canadians, 2014). Through the implementation of a ban of single-use water bottle sales in municipal spaces, the municipality can improve their ecological footprint and ultimately become one of the Blue Communities in Canada (The Council of Canadians, 2014) should they desire to take this step.<br /><br />The objective of this report is to provide information to support the Municipality of Dysart et al’s desire to ban the sale of plastic-bottled water in its municipal buildings and public spaces along with the provision of suitable alternatives and appropriate communication, education and engagement to ensure the public is aware of and adopts the use of these alternatives.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
According to Environment Canada (2006) in 2000, GHG emissions from Canada’s waste sector totaled 24 megatons of carbon dioxide, representing about 3% of Canada's total emissions in 2000. The primary source of these emissions is from solid waste disposal on land, which contributes 93% of the total sector emissions; much smaller contributions come from wastewater handling and waste incineration (6% and 1%, respectively). This project is in response to a request by Environment Haliburton to study Greenhouse Gas reduction strategies in Haliburton County, by reviewing current waste management techniques and providing solutions for future waste management strategies. These possible techniques and strategies examined include: bag limits, clear garbage bags, increasing diversion rates, education programs, and various scales of composting. The report also includes information on external funding sources that could be used to advance programs in these areas.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
<p class="p1">The paper examines the governmental strategies for paper diversion from landfills in place at the time of writing within the context of the government document "Keeping Paper Out of Ontario Landfills: Progress and Action", published in 1993. Locally, the project moves to an assessment of the Fine Paper Recycling Program set up in Haliburton County.<br /><br />Using the initiatives of reduction, reuse, and recycling, the Ontario government set a goal of reducing waste by 50% by the year 2000.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>The work of the Waste Reduction Office of the Ministry of Environment and Energy during the early 1990s is outlined, pointing out the successes and barriers to the program. Building on these initiatives, Haliburton County began its own fine paper recycling program and the paper describes the background to this program, its implementation process, and suggests reasons for its eventual demise along with that of the Waste Management Department.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>In conclusion, the author suggests areas for future research.</p>

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This project began with a growing concern about the life of landfills within Algonquin Highlands Township and the amount and type of recycling that was going on by local businesses.
Information was obtained through the use of a survey conducted with 21 businesses, one service provider and several landfill attendants.
The responses by the interviewees are included in the report and suggestions to promote more diversion of materials from landfill are provided.
