Buy LOCAL wine in a GLASS bottle
Going to the LCBO for wine? Buy local VQA wine in a glass bottle. Then tell the LCBO you’d like your wine sold in refillable glass containers, just like beer!
Please contact Lyle Clarke, Manager, Corporate Policy, at lyle.clarke@lcbo.com or 416 864-7718.
Why we’re asking you to take action:
On March 31st, the LCBO announced their Enviro Chic program. While this program has some good initiatives, there is one glaring problem: it supports the use of Tetra Paks for imported wine. Tetra Paks are a beverage container that creates pollution and waste when it’s made and when it’s disposed. In contrast, refillable glass bottles that are part of a local distribution system are much better for the environment.
