I have checked one listed:<br/>Whole Foods (former Capers)in Kitsilano, (Vancouver, BC) on 4th Avenue, 604 739-6676. They said they don't. Where is a place in Vancouver to recycle these filters. It is ridiculous to claim that they save environment by taking plastic water bottles off the market and dumping the filters instead. Plastic bottles are at least recyclable.<br/>Ewa Izdebski Recent news press release states that there are certain locations of the Whole Foods stores that participate in the program.
