launched two additional service lines<br />

continue to provide the highest levels of<br />
client service, we are always striving to<br />
be better in each and every area of our<br />
business and this award demonstrates<br />
all of our achievements and more. I am<br />
proud to accept the award for Outstanding<br />
Individual of the Year and know I couldn’t<br />
have done it without the support of a<br />
strong professional team at my side. I look<br />
forward to leading the incredible Equiom<br />
team through all of the successes and<br />
challenges that the future holds.’<br />

Recycling is crucial. Earlier this month a<br />
record-breaking deep sea dive found a plastic<br />
bag in the bottom of the Mariana Trench.<br />
into dumpsters and skips. Data is then<br />
collected from the receptacles and<br />
information is shared about what items<br />
have been incorrectly placed. They can<br />
then see which businesses or <strong>res</strong>taurants<br />
are putting the wrong items in the rubbish<br />
bins and encourage them to change.<br />
Such measu<strong>res</strong> may seem dramatic, but<br />
when we’re dealing with billions of tonnes<br />
of recycling generated each day, we need<br />
to act now. It’s vital that we get an army of<br />
people and machines on board to combat<br />
climate crisis.<br />

example so it can sort which grade plastic<br />
something is.<br />
The Mechatronics Systems Engineering<br />
company, at Simon Fraser University,<br />
designed a way to transform waste<br />
management and businesses by designing<br />
smart bins. These bins can sort the rubbish<br />
out once it’s in the bin. Using sensors, the<br />
bin uses data to decide what to do with<br />
the rubbish and where it should be sorted<br />
to. Depending on what it has decided, the<br />
bin sends the rubbish to the appropriate<br />
location, whether that’s a dump or a<br />
recycling centre.<br />
And it’s not just home and office recycling<br />
that’s revolutionising the status quo.<br />

aims to use AI to motivate businesses<br />
to recycle better by building technology<br />
