Let us make a difference to protect our environment and keep it clean.
Battery bins for small batteries are found in various places. Valuable metals like cobalt, nickel and silver are recovered from batteries.
The Local Council provides the Bulky Refuse service which is offered free of charge to the general public. Bring-in Sites on our island consist of four containers: Blue – plastic, White – paper, Brown – glass, Black – metal.
Please separate waste at home by using the grey or black bags. At school we separate waste: plastic, paper, batteries and ink-cartridges. The EkoSkola committee in our school help us to be more aware of our environment.
It is a pity that although we have lots of information about recycling there are still people who throw their waste in the countryside.
Reduce, reuse and recycle. Much energy can be saved by recycling than by manufacturing new items.
