In 2024, Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) commissioned a report on Waste-to-Energy, intended for local governments to use as a guide. This report painted WTE in a favourable light due to a narrow focus. In response to the federal paper, research was conducted for a coalition of environmental non-profit groups using a broader lens to better understand alternatives.
40+ organizations from across Canada signed our petition calling on the Government of Canada, provinces and territories, and local governments to end waste incineration in Canada.
