Recycling rumors and public communication
Summary
A rumor that all city recycling goes to the landfill spread on social media. Staff explained only certain plastics (3-7) and glass genuinely have no market and end up landfilled, and a new Canadian broker may soon allow 100% plastic bottle recycling. Council asked for a public presentation.
