 TRY IT FOR A YEAR CAMPAIGN
Are you still using Hydrogenated oils or shortenings?
Do you know is bad for the environment and bad for your
client's health?
Hydrogenated oil and shortenings is created by forcing hydrogen gas into the holes of unsaturated fatty acids. This process requires the presence of a metal catalyst. One of the side effects of this process is the residue of toxic metals (usually nickel and aluminum) that is left behind in the finished product. |

Community Collection Pilot Project |
|
|
|
Restaurent Green Zone has partnered with the Recycling Council of BC (www.rcbc.bc.ca ) and the White Rock BIA to test a community collection program that will allow local residents to bring their used frying oil to selected locations.
White Rock and Burnaby will be the proposed two locations for the pilot. Each location will serve a different purpose. In White Rock, Next NRG Systems will ask their restaurants in that area to allow local residents to drop off their used frying oil. However, in Burnaby, the drop off location will be the Still Creek Recycling Facility.
The proposals are pending the approval of the local municipal governments for White Rock and Burnaby.
We’ll keep you posted! |
