…continued from A22 “LightRecycle is one of 14 industry-managed recycling programs in the province that reinforces British Columbia’s position as North America’s leader in environmental stewardship and recycling,” said Brock Macdonald, CEO of the Recycling Council of British Columbia. “Expanding the program to include all lighting products from all sectors means that fewer recyclable materials will end up in landfill.” All types of lights are accepted under both channels, including fluorescent tubes, compact fluorescent lights (CFLs), halogen and

incandescent bulbs, light emitting diodes (LEDs) and high intensity discharge lamps (HID). A lighting fixture is any product with a primary purpose to provide light. Common examples of residential-use lighting fixtures include floor lamps, chandeliers, table lamps, ceiling lights, flashlights and Christmas lights. There are more than 200 collection sites for consumers to drop off their burntout lights (bulbs and tubes) and over 80 collection sites across the province for consumers to drop off their old or broken lighting fixtures. There is no charge to drop

off lighting products. The LightRecycle program includes a growing network of over 40 collection sites for large volume generators that will accept less than a pallet of lights without charge. The first phase of LightRecycle was launched in July 2010 and included only residential-use fluorescent tubes and bulbs. In 2011, nearly 400,000 fluorescent lights were collected across the province from consumers and responsibly recycled. LightRecycle is funded by recycling fees applied to the sale of new products. • More at www.langleyadvance.com
