Re:Recycling plan sparks concern, Oct. 25

Polystyrene should just be banned because there are other alternatives like paper. And recycling it is just costing more money. Companies are the source and they should be using products that can be easily recycled in the first place.

Why should it be up to the consumers or the City of Toronto to pick up the tab for companies that use products which are difficult to recycle in order to make more profit?
