Recommendations for reducing leaf and yard waste in Alberta

Description

This is a plan for Albertans to switch from disposing leaf and yard waste in landfill to recycling it. Organics, including leaf and yard waste, make up an estimated 40 per cent of the residential and 25 per cent of the industrial, commercial, and institutional waste streams. When leaf and yard waste is disposed in landfill, it generates greenhouse gases and nutrients are locked up in the landfill. Recycling these resources by composting and returning the resulting compost back to land can increase soil productivity.
