Climate Smart Business Program

Metro Vancouver and Lower Mainland municipalities invite you to join a group of local businesses that are cutting costs by cutting carbon. Climate Smart trains key staff and provides businesses with the support to become more competitive in an era of carbon regulation and volatile energy prices. In a collaborative learning environment, your staff will draw on the experience of other businesses and apply tools to measure and profitably reduce your greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Learn more about how it works.

Solar Cone Food Digester

The District and Ridge Meadows Recycling Society are partnering to provide an opportunity for Maple Ridge residents to reduce their household waste by 20% or more. A solar cone food digester is a garden unit that uses solar heat and bacteria to reduce food waste to its natural components of water and carbon dioxide. Because more than 90% of its contents are absorbed as water by the surrounding soil, the solar cone does not need emptying on a regular basis. Also unlike a composter, meat, fish, bones, and dairy products can be safely put into the solar cone.

Maple Ridge residents can call Ridge Meadows Recycling Depot at 604-463-5545 to order a solar cone. For more information visit Ridge Meadows Recycling Society's website.
