I am extremely proud to live in Edmonton, which is a world leader in recycling and waste management (and former Earth Hour city). The City of Edmonton has some awesome programs and facilities, and there are also many other organizations in Edmonton that offer recycling programs. I’ve tried to put these all together in this Edmonton resource for recycling and waste.
