Answer 3

The Canadian plastics industry is on a campaign to boost the recycling rate of plastic shopping bags.
“These bags are much too valuable a resource to be thrown out after a single use,” said Craig Foster, municipal consultant for the Canadian Plastics Industry Association.

The body has unveiled a new web site – www.myplasticbags.ca.

Foster said Canadians overwhelmingly reuse their plastic bags for various purposes. But many aren’t aware they can be returned for recycling. He pointed to a recent Decima poll of B.C. residents that found only 31 per cent recycle their bags while 91 per cent are in favour of the idea.

“What we’re after are the bags that are not being reused,” Foster said. “If you’re not going to reuse them, recycle them.”

Plastic bags are recycled into a variety of products, including new bags, railway ties, traffic cones, decking and patio furniture. Production of plastic wood is growing at a rate of 14 per cent per year and is expected to hit US $1.4 billion per year by next year.
