SUMMARY:Consultation Roundtable: Industry Ideas and Input for Metro Vancouver Solid Waste Management Plan
DESCRIPTION:November 14\, 2024 | 10:00 to 11:30 AM Pacific time\n\nWe are offering two convenient times for a virtual workshop and open discussion.  \n\n– DETAILS –\nMetro Vancouver Collaborative Engagement | As part of Metro Vancouver’s idea generation phase of engagement to seek input on the future of waste management in the region. \n“Metro Vancouver is responsible for waste reduction and recycling planning\, and operating a series of solid waste facilities in the region.  \nWe are updating our solid waste management plan\, building on the strengths of the 2011 Solid Waste and Resource Management Plan\, and identifying opportunities for accelerated waste reduction and recycling\, while reducing greenhouse gases and promoting a circular economy.   \nThe plan update process is expected to take several years and is currently in the idea generation phase. Metro Vancouver is actively engaging with governments\, including First Nations\, the waste and recycling industry\, waste producers\, businesses\, communities of interest\, not-for-profit organizations\, and residents to guide updates to the plan.” \nCWMA is taking a broad approach to this discussion to ensure we uncover multiple aspects of ideas from our industry and provide  Metro Vancouver with potential actions and strategies that could be included or should be considered. \nBeyond individual thoughts.\nEven if you have sent feedback already using one of the other great feedback options\, please plan to attend this session which will specifically leverage the collective ideas of the group. We will facilitate a discussion that encourages participants to build on each other’s ideas to uncover and and make the feedback truly collaborative. \nBring your thoughts and ideas! \nBackgrounder – Solid Waste Management Plan Update – Idea Generation – September 2024.pdf \n\n– COST –\nNo cost for this event.
