Glad Canada Becomes City Sponsor For New Green Bin Service Rollout
/Waste and food protection solutions company Glad is sponsoring the City of Peterborough’s rollout of its Green Bin service.
“Glad is committed to doing its part to help reduce waste through our partnership with the City of Peterborough on its new Green Bin program that will help divert food waste from landfill, a critical step toward to reducing methane gas,” said Chris Budinszky, Glad marketing director. “One of the biggest barriers to program success is early adoption and resident participation so our hope is that by providing free Glad samples and coupons all residents can participate from day 1.”
