Plastics remain a major global environmental issue, one of many challenges the world faces today. In Canada, it's imperative that we take meaningful action within our own jurisdiction. Terms such as single-use plastic ban, biodegradable plastics, compostable plastics, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) programs, federal plastics registry, recycled content and labelling rules, and zero plastic waste strategy may already be familiar. We encourage you to keep yourselves up to date on the regulations and practices surrounding compostable plastic. The LEAF team has compiled an infographic resource including clickable links to offer more insight into plastics regulations across Canada by province – with a specific focus on plastic regulations, compostable plastics and EPR programs.
