"I am figuring out how to collect plastic from the community and now that I have all these amazing machines, turn it into something that we can use."
Watch the full video on the CleanBC Plastics Action Fund's YouTube channel.
Delve Recycled was featured in a video from the CleanBC Plastics Action Fund, the Province of B.C. program (administered by Alacrity Canada in partnership with the Synergy Foundation) that grew out of the StrongerBC economic recovery plan that has now supported 97 projects across three funding phases. The video pulls together voices from across the province's plastics economy - including Plastic Action Fund staff, Indigenous community leads, and the funded businesses themselves - to show what that funding actually turns into on the ground.
Emma appears alongside founders and operators from a wide mix of B.C. plastics projects: KC Recycling, the Western Canada and Pacific Northwest's largest lead acid battery recycler, now processing plastic in-house instead of outsourcing it; a Kootenay outdoor gear repair business built around the idea that "everything is, in fact, a resource"; an Indigenous-led recycling and zero-waste initiative working to take single-use plastics out of the community; and several other micro recycling and reuse ventures scattered through smaller B.C. towns. Fund staff describe the program's reach as intentionally regional - spreading investment beyond the major urban centres and into rural and Indigenous-led projects, of which Delve is one.
Delve's moment in the video is short but true to form: plastic collected locally, machines that make it usable again, and a small operation in Williams Lake doing the hands-on work of figuring it out.
