We've been stuck at home for months now, with more items delivered and a desire to change the spaces we live in. Curb side pick-up also applies to waste. What happens with that waste and are we recycling properly? Can black plastic be recycled? Do you really have to rinse containers? How does using the green bin reduce climate change? Which bin do I put cardboard in? What about pet waste? 

Join us for an interactive presentation from Kathleen Barsoum, Waste Management Coordinator for the Region of Waterloo. Kathleen lives in Waterloo, is a business grad from Laurier, and with five children, she knows waste! She'll tell us about pandemic related challenges, bust some common myths and answer your questions. Kathleen promises not to 'waste your time' and will keep you entertained.
