Divert NS is a not-for-profit organization in Nova Scotia regulated by the province. They also administer the Extended Producer Responsibility program. Last year billboards and signs went up in various communities after a litter prevention summit -- they've also got The Great Nova Scotia Pick-Me-Up, Adopt a Highway, and even a Litter Champion girl guide crest to support cleanup programs. Plus, they do litter audits; produce sorting guides; hand out school lesson plans, community and business grants, awards; and host bottle drive contests. More here: https://divertns.ca/

Original post reads: "Those great big round garbage cans in parking lots close to restaurants, have you ever wondered how they are emptied and how big they are". 

This image was shared around a bit on Facebook (1.2k+ reactions) and reposted on Molok North America Ltd.'s Linkedin (excited that other people were also excited about how to manage waste).
