An investigative article has been published by a Canadian periodical, The Local, which discusses the environmental and community impact of GFL Environmental, a Canadian waste management company that currently owns the Arbor Hills Landfill. Despite GFL's self-proclaimed commitment to sustainability and its "Green for Life" branding, local residents near its landfills report significant issues, such as foul odors, water contamination, and disruptions to their quality of life.
The investigation details some of GFL’s history of environmental violations and non-compliance with regulations. Despite the negative impacts on communities and the environment, GFL has grown significantly and is considered a major player in the waste management industry, The report suggests that the industry itself is not well-regulated and prioritizes profit over enviromental responsibility.
The article is lengthy, and the Arbor Hills Landfill is not the focus, but the article does give a look into Green for Life.
