- 1. Composting by households in Canada ArchivedTable: 16-002-X201300111848Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study looks at composting by Canadian households using data from the 2011 Households and the Environment Survey.
Release date: 2013-07-10 - Articles and reports: 16-002-X200800410750Geography: CanadaDescription: This study focuses on six environmental behaviours at the household level: use of reduced volume toilets; use of low-flow showerheads; use of compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL); recycling; composting; and lowering temperatures. In 2006, almost half of Canadian households were very active across this range of environmental behaviours.Release date: 2008-12-09
- 3. Is composting organic waste spreading? ArchivedArticles and reports: 16-002-X200800110540Geography: CanadaDescription: Diverting organic waste is one way of reducing the amount of waste being sent to landfills. Materials such as food waste and leaf and yard trimmings are often composted at home using compost bins or they are collected curbside and processed at centralized composting facilities. The study examines composting in Canada using data from the Waste Management Industry Survey and the Households and the Environment Survey.Release date: 2008-03-27
- 4. Solid waste in Canada ArchivedArticles and reports: 16-201-X20050008657Geography: CanadaDescription:
Waste has always been a by-product of human activity. Indeed, all aspects of our lives - working, playing, eating - generate some form of waste. Managing it has been a challenge for millennia, more so since the Industrial Revolution of the 19th century gave rise to unprecedented industrialization and urbanization. Canadians are concerned today about many waste-related issues. These include: The generation of waste - how much garbage is produced in Canada, and is production going up or down? The impact of waste on the environment - has the way we deal with garbage changed over the years? What are governments and others doing to address these concerns? This article examines these issues by creating a statistical portrait of solid waste in Canada.
