The City of Lethbridge is calling the first year of its curbside organics waste collection program a success.

“Six million kilograms of organic waste in the green cart program, that averages out to about 175 kilograms per household,” said James Nicholls, waste and environment collections manager with the City of Lethbridge.“We've seen over 85 per cent of residents utilizing their green cart, which again, is a big change,” Nicholls said.

In 2018, the city created a waste diversion target that aims to divert 50 per cent of waste generated in Lethbridge by 2030. “You need to be making those plans, thinking about rain barrels, you need to think about how you're going to be altering your watering procedures in your garden so that you can get the best experience at the end of the summer.”
