Do you regularly wonder whether a material goes in the blue bin, the black bin or the brown bin?
\ud83e\udc7a You can install RECYC-QU\u00c9BEC’s \u201c\u00c7a va o\u00f9?\u201d app on your smartphone to assist you in your daily sorting of materials.
Here’s an outline of what goes into the recycling and the garbage can. For the brown bin, see the page dedicated to composting.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

All containers, packaging and printed matter, with the exception of biodegradable plastics, aerosols and Styrofoam.<\/p>

It’s now simpler than ever: no need to look at the numbers in the triangle (M\u00f6bius strip), no need to check if the plastic stretches, all containers, packaging and printed matter except the 3 exceptions are accepted in the recycling bin. Previously rejected materials such as chip bags, cereal bags, soft bar wrappers and many others are now accepted.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

You probably know that, before being a landfill, the site in question is a natural environment that needs to be deforested. By reducing what goes into the black bin, we reduce the need for landfill. So we slow down the filling up of these sites and postpone the need to create new ones, further and further away, requiring even more transport. This helps protect our terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, our forests, the air they provide, the animals that live there and those we hunt, our rivers and the fish we catch.<\/p>

What’s more, the extraction of resources, particularly petroleum derivatives, is highly polluting, and these resources are finite. It is therefore essential to reintegrate materials into a circular economy loop to reduce the need for new resources. By recycling, materials are transformed for another life cycle and the loop is repeated as many times as possible, avoiding ending up in landfill and requiring more new resources and ever more space to landfill materials that are not reintegrated.<\/p>
