Today is Earth Overshoot Day, a day to reflect on our ecological footprint and the impact our actions have on our planet. What exactly is Earth Overshoot Day? Earth Overshoot Day is when our annual resource consumption exceeds Earth's regenerative capacity. In 2024, it falls on August 1st, indicating that we're consuming more resources than the planet can sustainably provide. #EarthOvershootDay is not a celebration but a call to action, reminding us to transition from a linear to a circular economy, embracing 'reduce-reuse-recycle' in as many ways as we can.

Meet Crystal, one of our incredible Billing Coordinators! Where are you located? I am located in North York, ON. How would you describe your job to a bunch of five-year-olds? I get to work with numbers, solve problems and keep money flowing! Which of Waste Solutions core values do you identify with the most and why? Passionate – Coming from the customer service department to work in Billing, I have a soft spot for both our clients and vendor partners. I have a full understanding of the needs on both ends, so I consider it my duty to ensure that I embody everything Waste Solutions stand for in all interactions both internally and externally. Use 3 words to describe what it's like working at Waste Solutions: Accommodating, Fun, Inclusive If you could plan your perfect Sunday, how would you spend it? My perfect Sunday would be spending a whole day at the beach with my friends and family, playing, eating and laughing until the sun sets. #WasteSolutionsCanada #EmployeeSpotlight

Happy #PlasticFreeJuly! 🌍✨ This month, join millions worldwide in the fight against plastic pollution. Plastic pollution affects our land, water, air, wildlife, and our own health. By participating in Plastic Free July, we reduce the demand for single-use plastic and prevent plastic waste from entering the environment. Here are some top tips for a plastic-free summer: 💧 Bring your reusable water bottle (or coffee cup) wherever you go. 🥪 Pack your picnics and beach snacks in reusable containers instead of plastic bags. 🥤 Say no to plastic straws and use reusable alternatives. 🌽 Shop at farmers' markets for fresh produce without plastic wrapping. 🏖️ Make a goal to pick up a few pieces of waste from the beach or park each time you are there! Together, our small steps can make a big difference. Learn more about Plastic Free July here: plasticfreejuly.org #PlasticFreeJuly #Sustainability #WasteSolutionsCanada
