Call2Recycle Rebrands, Collects Record Volume Call2Recycle, a North American product stewardship organization for batteries and mobile phones, collected a record 10 million pounds of batteries in 2012 — a 16 percent increase from the previous year. The industry-led organization, which administers a voluntary stewardship program through a network of over 30,000 retailers, municipalities, businesses and public agencies throughout the U.S. and Canada, attributes its success to banner years in California and Canada, both of which collected over 1 million pounds. In Canada, battery collections grew by 56 percent. The increase can be accredited in part to its program expansion in Quebec, where Call2Recycle was selected by RECYC- QUÉBEC, the organization that coordinates recycling efforts for the province, to serve as the official battery recycling program. As of July 2012, Call2Recycle began accepting single-use household batteries for recycling in support of the provincial extended producer responsibility regulation. As a result, 2012 collections in Quebec rose by 357 percent over 2011. Call2Recycle offers battery collection through a network of over 30,000 retailers, municipalities, businesses and public agencies throughout the U.S. and Canada. In other related news from the group, as of the first of the year the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation has formally changed its name to Call2Recycle, Inc. National Battery Recycling Program The Home Depot Canada offers rechargeable battery recycling to customers across the country, and single-use (non-rechargeable) battery collection in British Columbia and Ontario. Batteries should not be disposed of in regular household waste because their toxic materials can leach into groundwater and soil. Help the environment by bringing your old batteries to The Home Depot to be responsibly recycled. Single-use (non-rechargeable) battery collection is available at all Ontario and British Columbia The Home Depot Stores. Changes To Home Depot's Paint And Compact Fluorescent Bulb And Tube Recycling Programs We're making changes to our paint recycling program in Ontario and Quebec, and our compact fluorescent (CFL) bulb and tube recycling programs across the country. We believe the collection and disposal of CFLs and paint can be more effectively managed through a third-party recycling program and as such, will no longer be accepting these products for recycling. But don't worry - we've got a solution. Beginning March 1, 2013, you can drop off your used paint and expired CFL bulbs at one of the many recycling locations near you. 6
Container Freight Rates To Rise By Half? Container freight rates on trans-Pacific services from Asia to the USA could rise 50% by May this year if shipping lines succeed in pushing through planned rate increases, according to the South China Morning Post. Fifteen container shipping lines belonging to the Transpacific Stabilisation Agreement (TSA) have recommended rate increases of US$ 400 per 40-foot container to US west coast ports and US$ 600 per FEU to all other US destinations from April. Carriers like the Tung-family controlled Orient Overseas Container Line and Cosco Container Lines are advocating increases of US$ 800 per FEU for cargo shipped to the west coast and up to US$ 1200 per FEU from Asia to other US cities. Barclays Bank industrial analyst Jon Windham says container lines have been only partially successful in lifting freight rates as cargo owners have resisted paying the full increases sought. He estimates that cargo demand will rise by 6.3% this year while fleet growth will lag behind at 5.8%, thus helping to ‘buoy’ freight rates. The latter figure contrasts with the 9% growth in container ship capacity forecast by Alphaliner for this year. TSA’s Executive Administrator Brian Conrad comments: ‘It is essential to carriers’ longterm viability that new contracts include rates that are more closely aligned with current market levels.’ Will A Shortage Of Fiber Harm The Global Paper Recycling Industry? A review of assessments by paper industry analysts shows growing concern about the potential inability of the recycling industry in developed countries to supply enough fiber to feed new demand in the developing world. The key issue being debated by analysts in reports and presentations is the theoretical limits to expanded recovery. For example, while the current fiber recovery level in the U.S. is at a highly commendable 67 percent, this is actually below levels elsewhere. "Japan has the highest recovery rate in the world at about 77 percent," says Bill Moore of Moore and Associates. He notes that the Netherlands, Austria and Germany have similar rates. Moore says that Japan topped at 80 percent before falling back. "Thus, I would say 80 percent is a good theoretical maximum." Hannah Zhao, an economist with RISI, agrees. "Although we don't know the exact limit on how high the paper recovery can go, we are almost sure that 80 percent is very close to the limit," she concludes. She points out that all of Western Europe, including the three countries listed by Moore, has a combined recovery level of about 75 percent. At the same time, demand for recovered fiber continues to rise in the developing world. Zhao points out that China added 6.6 million tons per year of new paper and paperboard capacity last year. While some of these new machines replaced old, inefficient ones, China's demand for bales continues upward. 7
