A new bylaw approved by city council last year aims to help reduce single-use and takeaway items in Toronto.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

hopefully this means if I pour out my sippy cup in the drive-thru, it’s kosher?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Instead, the bylaw requires businesses to allow customers to use reusable cups \u2014 so long as the cup is “suitable to be used as a beverage cup,” meaning it is visibly clean <\/em><\/strong>and “of sound construction.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Note to self: buy stock in handkerchief manufacturers? :
Note to self: carry hanky. Buy hanky?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

including wooden utensils, cup lids, condiment packets and napkins\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

interesting stat here; so 2x the mass will need to be handled; have the extra costs for handling twice the mass been included (my assumption is yes, ’cause if I can think of it, certain the smart folks doing this work thunk it too); also volume; also, why aren’t wooden things like spoons, forks, knives allowed in green bin?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0federal government estimates<\/a>\u00a0the ban will keep roughly 1.6 billion tonnes of plastic out of the environment by 2032 while adding about 3.2 million tonnes of other material \u2014 including paper, wood and aluminum.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
