In Winnipeg some of the glass collected by the blue box program ends up getting crushed into sand that is used for road building and maintenance at the landfill.

Which servers the second "R" (re-use), and also reduces the need to quarry and transport fresh material for that roadbuilding.

Sure, it's not being remanufactured into new glass products, but it is still better than what used to happen.

Nice to see another refugee from r/Winnipeg over here. I'm hoping that community grows quickly to replace the one on the old platform.
