📍 Košice (Slovakia 🇸🇰)
⚖️ Sooo many KG & bags! (see 🗑️)
Today’s shoutout is for @save_nature_civas! They are a very active cleanup group 🧹 from Slovakia since summer 2019 and they keep cleaning forests and rivers 🌲🏞️ ever since with impressive results. They saw a problem and decided to take action ♻️, the photos speak for themselves 📸. Also, Slovakia as a country has improved its environmental stats 📊🌱 a lot, let’s see some figures below:
Waste production in Slovakia
For the 1st time ever, only 48% of the municipal waste landed in landfills 🗑️ in 2020, while 44% was recycled ♻️. These are positive news if we look at the past. Five years earlier, in comparison, 69% of all municipal waste was sent to landfills and only 15% was recycled. These figures are giving Slovaks and the 🌏 in general lots of hope for a better country.
We believe that the main reason for these changes is coming from ourselves 👨👩👧👦 as citizens. We are the change, we have the power to take action and make the world a better place 💚.
With local groups like @save_nature_civas and its volunteers, we’ll be able to see more milestones 🎯 in the years to come. Let’s keep rocking, let’s #cleansomethingfornothing.
