Original Toronto Star caption: Where to next? Metro will produce about 1.5 million tons of garbage this year, al each succeeding year the total will increase by about 5 per cent. Our landfill sites are filling up and out incinerators are being phased out to solve the problem of air pollution. The pressure is on as we negotiate for landfill sites in other areas. Beare Road Landfill, bounded by Finch Avenue East to the north, Scarborough-Pickering Town line to the east, hydro corridor to the south, and CN rail line to the west.
