This distinction underlines the efforts of the Deux-Montagnais in terms of good recycling habits.

In 2019, the City of Deux-Montagnes recorded an impressive increase in the quantities of recyclable materials collected, going from 79 kg to 94 kg per citizen. This 19% increase makes Deux-Montagnes the Tricentris member with the largest increase in its category.
