I already compost. I am dumping this piece of junk back at city hall. I encourage everyone to dump their green bins in front of City Hall.

The processing plant is at Rideau Road and Hawthorne Road. So far I’ve only seen mention of producing compost. I asked the City about it, and they replied that Orgaworld will sell its 90 percent share of the compost to local farmers.

I was curious to know more about this Orgaworld processing plant and where it is located. The weblink mentions that they will use the organic waste to make biogas… but it seems to be in the Netherlands only… will the one here in Ottawa be putting green energy back into our grid?
Thanks

We already recycle as much as we can, and have very little garbage to show for it: we can often skip a week on garbage day. To keep indoor garbage from smelling, we freeze leftover food garbage (fat, bones, etc), but this takes up space in the freezer. Now we can just dump it into the greenbin! Yippee!
