I took a walk in beautiful downtown Ottawa this afternoon and came across this container that separates garbage, plastic bottles, and recyclables. It’s really nice to see that somehow they do try to recycle but what’s wrong with this is there’s maybe only one of those per building block.

I also took a look inside the thing and garbage was in with the recyclables and vice versa. Good try Ottawa but not good enough.

Maybe they could change the containers to clear ones so that people can see what’s in them instead of trying to figure out what’s written on the scratched up stickers. I guess the only way to make that happen would be to write a complaint to the city of Ottawa. I’ll send them an email and see what they reply. Stay tuned to see the results.
