self action




        my self action is going to be cleaning up the area around superstore north. i chose to do this because its gross. after the snow melts all the garbage from in the snow sticks to the trees around and it makes a good neighbor hood look bad. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/city-of-regina-rolling-out-smaller-garbage-carts-1.2951377 if you read this article it talks about how Regina want to give us smaller garbage bin! as of right now our garbage gets picked up once a week and recycling every 2 weeks. so instead of letting smaller bins, and spending all this money why don't we just go every two weeks for both. do you know how much more simpler this would be?  plus how much less garbage we would use and people would recycle more! on this website there is a poll for people to take with 3 options. the question ask "would you opt for a smaller garbage bin, if it was offered to you?
  • yes! most of my wast is going into the blue bin anyway!
  • no the current cart is the right size
  • actually i need a larger cart not smaller
but yet no other option. i feel like the city of Regina is wanting to give us smaller garbage cans because they don't want to cut peoples hours. if the city was smart they would listen to the every two weeks.

  1. I agree with you saying that the garbage should be put out every two weeks instead of one, maybe it could get people to not throw away so much garbage. I've went out to clean up a neighborhood before though, the park across from my house had a bunch of garbage in it so I picked it all up.

  2. I agree about the city coming and picking up are garbage every two weeks also because, that would force people to recycle what can be recycled and use less things that have to be thrown away after use.

  4. I wonder what would happen if everyone helped clean the community? What do you think we can do to help?
