🌿 New Beginnings: Think Green, Live Green! 

A New Year starts with new beginnings…. the Bethune Environmental Action Team’s motto is Think green, live green. As we start 2026, Toronto’s recycling rules have officially changed! Here are some helpful reminders for a fresh start:

  • Updated Recycling: You can now put black plastic, toothpaste tubes, and deodorant sticks in the Blue Bin (empty and rinsed!).
  • Green Bin Basics: Use it for all food scraps (meat/bones included) and soiled paper like tissues and napkins.
  • Energy Audit: Unplug "phantom" electronics like chargers and turn off lights when leaving the room.
  • Ditch Single-Use: Carry a reusable water bottle and cloth bags to avoid plastic waste.
  • Cold Water Wash: Use the "cold" setting on your laundry to save energy and protect your clothes.
  • Shorten Showers: Aim for 5 minutes to save both water and heating energy.

🏆 The January BEAT Challenge:

Can you go the whole week without using a single-use plastic water bottle or coffee cup? Snap a photo of your reusable gear and let us know how you did! @bethunebeat @ecoschoolscan 

...because the Earth is all we have in common.
