Ecole L’Harmonie, a French elementary school in Waterloo under the Viamonde school board, is offering its students and staff with a way to properly dispose of their used toothbrushes and other oral care waste through a company called Terracycle. The company provides the school with Zero Waste boxes, an easy way to recycle waste that is difficult to recycle through our municipal blue bins. These boxes can be purchased in various sizes for nearly any type of waste imaginable. This includes batteries, art supplies, automotive parts, baby food, bath and shower accessories, books and magazines, hair nets, ear plugs, cleaning supplies, coffee capsules and much more
The
Harvard Law School Green Team is a network of HLS staff committed sustainability through educational and impact-driven campaigns, events, and projects. In addition to Zero-waste Commencement, the group regularly hosts Freecycle events and promotes landfill waste diversion through programs such as Terracycle and composting. The Green Team also organizes Earth Day-related activities on campus, and holds educational lunchtime talks.
MacKay added that her students do in-school recycling. The #5 plastics are separated and sent to the United States to be made into toothbrushes, plastic bags and tetra paks are taken to Terracycle in Kincardine. They also have a vermicompost bin for some of the natural waste in the school.

The containers, produced as part of recycling company TerraCycle's Loop initiative, will at first only be available to customers shopping online. Loblaws will also pick them up and clean them once customers are done. While there's no set date for the in-store launch, it's expected to be later in 2020.

Loblaw Co. announced Thursday that it has partnered with
Loop, a brand launched this year at the World Economic Forum by New Jersey-based TerraCycle with the goal of revolutionizing how products are delivered to customers.
The Live Outside and Play Road Team has been making an effort to live more gently on the Earth. We’ve incorporated a few things into our daily routines that reduce our carbon footprint. Take a look at the video for just a few of the things we focus on. Of course, we strive to always Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Rot. More info below:
First announced earlier this year, Loop is a program from global recycling company TerraCycle, which has partnered with retailers and brands to create sustainable, reusable packaging for products in an effort to reduce waste. After placing an online order for grocery, household and personal care products, the products are delivered in a special, reusable tote. The packaging– which is designed to be specific to each brand and product – is placed back in the tote once it is used and returned to Loop for reuse. Products can be ordered for one-time use, or set to auto-refill once they are returned.
