Scarborough es un distrito de la ciudad de Toronto, Ontario, Canad\u00e1, con una poblaci\u00f3n de 625.000 personas. Recientemente, mil residentes del condominio Mayfair on the Green reaccionaron al aumento vertiginoso de las tarifas de gesti\u00f3n de residuos. Se implement\u00f3 una campa\u00f1a de desviaci\u00f3n de residuos con m\u00faltiples enfoques. Convirtieron el conducto de basura en un colector de materia org\u00e1nica, utilizaron herramientas educativas de la ciudad, incluyendo letreros multiling\u00fces, y redujeron la producci\u00f3n de basura de un contenedor cada semana a un contenedor cada dos meses.<\/p>\n

The condo used to spend $7,000 to $10,000 a year to get drains cleared. The problem stopped when property Superintendent Princely Soundranayagam gave residents empty containers to bring down used cooking oil. Now, instead of paying to unclog their drains, they sell the used oil.<\/p>\n

El esfuerzo forma parte de un resurgimiento del reciclaje en la ciudad, cuya tasa de reciclaje pas\u00f3 del 42% de los residuos residenciales en 2007 al 53% en 2012. Lamentablemente, no se alcanz\u00f3 el objetivo del 70% fijado para 2010. La ciudad recurri\u00f3 a sus residentes para buscar formas de avanzar. La Toronto Environmental Alliance ha publicado un Reporte de hoja de ruta de 27 p\u00e1ginas titulado, Cero Residuos Toronto<\/a>.<\/p>\n
