"Recycling is the keystone of Premier Peterson's new soft drink container policy," Bradley said as he addressed delegates of the Recyling Council of Ontario's Sixth An- nual Recycling Conference in Burlington. The new soft drink regulation will provide a secure market niche for refillable bottles and offer consumers a new range of con- tainers, including plastic bottles and, by 1987, aluminum cans, all of which must be recyclable. "As the program gathers steam, we can expect some 1,400 new jobs to be created in the recycling industry," Bradley said. The new Recycling Advisory Council which will be appointed to promote and guide recycl- ing, will be based in Hamilton. Bradley predicted that new employment will be also created in making the new DON'T PAY FOR YOUR NEW WINDOWS OR SIDING!

The Ministry of the Environment will pro- vide increased funding of $2.8 million an- nually to encourage curbside collection of separated material for recycling. The substantial increase in provincial fun- ding will be directed to municipalities to support the establishment and expansion, of source separation and collection programs. Bradley said-. the policy requires that the recyclable containers must be collected along with other materials such as newsprint. So the new recycling program will reach beyond soft drink containers to encourage widespread recycling. The Recycling Conference is the highlight of the Ontario Government's first Recycling Week. At the conference, Bradley presented Recycling Week Awards to several con- scientious organizations, companies and in- dividuals who are doing their part to make recycling work in Ontario. Recipients in- cluded; Total Recycling Systems Ltd., Niagara Recycling, Gwen Discepolo of Halton's Recycled Resources Ltd., David Worth of the Mennonite Central Committee in Waterloo Region, the Ontario Paper Com- pany, and the Regional Municipality of Halton. Coins help children UNICEF, HALLOWE'EN AND EDUCATION This Hallowe'en have your coins ready for the trick -or -treaters and their UNICEF boxes, and you will be helping UNICEF supply basic education around the world. UNICEF brings education and literacy to children and mothers by helping governments print textbooks, build classrooms and train teachers. UNICEF is particularly interested in closing the gap between female and male education statistics. It recognizes that a mother who can read is in a much better position to care for and teach her children than is an illiterate mother. When you see a Canadian school child at your door with a UNICEF box on Hallowe'en, please be generous — you are helping to bring schooling to another child in the Third World. UNICEF FIGHTS CHILDHOOD DISEASES By putting coins into Trick -or -Treaters' UNICEF boxes on Hallowe'en, you are helping UNICEF fight the five biggest child killers in the world: polio, measles, whooping cough, tetanus and tuberculosis. Today, most of these diseases are only a bad memory in the developed world, but in the Third World nations they remain a major threat to child survival. You can give as child a tomorrow by helping UNICEF fight communicable diseases. It is as easy at 'Trick -or -Treat". CCWIMUNITY CALENDAR.
