Island Ink-Jet lobbying feds
November
2008 An international printer cartridge refilling franchise is asking
customers to join them in calling on the Canadian government to help in
the diversion of an estimated 300 million cartridges from landfills
annually around the world.The company, which has a location in North
Vancouver’s Capilano Mall, has created a petition asking the Canadian
government to create legislation that will stop cartridge manufacturers
from making products that are unable to be refilled.According to the
Capilano Mall location owner Glen Sandwell, the European government has
instituted such a law and a group in Australia is calling on their
government to do the same.Noel Bentley, manager of Island Ink-Jet in
Capilano Mall, refills a printer cartridge, an important means of
diverting waste from landfills.View Larger Image View Larger Image To
