 CMHA Recycling Scorecard
 CMHA
initiated a mixed paper recycling pilot at
six of its administrative offices in March
of 2008. In May,
we rolled it out to all of our administrative
offices and in our high-rise buildings and at our family-unit offices. Around
the same time, we introduced paper recycling to our residents. To the
right, look for a picture of one of our Euclid Beach residents “pitching-in”.
Since the inception of our paper recycling initiative, we have recycled over 210 tons of paper. Note, the dramatic spike in May and June 2011 is due to a paper purge as we moved our administrative offices to a newly constructed L.E.E.D Silver building.
The
ideals of conservation have been put forth to our employees and residents. We
see these ideals taking hold as we hear them walk the talk of conservation;
recycle, reuse, rethink, reduce, and respect. Further, these
ideals resonate loudly with all of our stakeholders.
In the end, it is all about the winning of hearts
and minds.
