The next Monday, June 13 at 19.00 pm in the Cultural Hall Cajamurcia will take out a small theatrical performance and a talk aimed at raising awareness among citizens about the importance of recycling.
This act led to associations, groups and anyone interested in the subject, is enclosed within an awareness campaign, under the name "Green I want you green", is conducting the Autonomous Community of Murcia, for different municipalities in the region.
According to organizers, the increasing generation of municipal solid waste, typical of the consumer society, requires an understanding by the public of the problems resulting from their disposal, and environmental consequences that can result in inappropriate treatment.
The culture of "throwaway" has led in recent years a significant change in the composition of the waste and the quantities that are produced.
This is compounded by the emergence of other potential contaminants such as batteries, expired medicines, light bulbs.
Therefore, the treatment has traditionally exempt municipal waste landfills or incinerators is not sufficient or effective today.
It is therefore vitally important that citizens know the problems in this field to prioritize behavior change in two ways: reducing waste at source (to avoid buying products with excess packaging, unneeded and / or non-reusable or recyclable) and their separation according to the various fractions of recycling.
The struggle for environmental sustainability is a social task that arguably begins at the individual level.
