What Are These Bumps All Over My Tounge?

Quando i rifiuti non sono solo rifiuti

Produrre e gettare waste has become so "normal" in our daily work is often considered a natural fact. But there is no waste in nature: they are an "invention" of man, whose modern economy is basing solely on the logic of consumerism and the maximum profit, without taking into account the impacts on the environment and man himself.
This way of thinking and work is in sharp contrast with the laws of nature as waste, rather than resources and provide an economic benefit for society, are rendered incompatible with the environment.
For this you need to deal with a spirit of careful and responsible management of waste, producing less waste as possible, and learning to recover and reuse as much as possible of the waste materials produced.
To this end, the Association Grilli Aretusea "Nature Sicula, promoters of Syracuse Zero Waste Committee, along with the Group to fair trade GAS Syracuse, organized a public meeting dedicated to good practices for the reuse and recycling, one of the effective solutions to combat the problem of the waste in Sicily.
The meeting will be held Wednesday 25 March at 18:30 at the Centro Pio La Torre "in Piazza S. Lucia, 24 , in Syracuse, is the first scheduled event under the events GTutti-Forum of Environment. Guest speaker will be
Vania De Preto, coordinator of the recycling industry dedicated managed by the social cooperative "Together" in Vicenza, which it submits to the treatment of waste, reuse and recycling activity carried out daily by the 90 members of the cooperative.
The social cooperative "Together," which in its 30 years has gained a great experience, working in view of the multiplicity of types of differentiation, which allows you to reach a recovery rate on materials collected over 90% , aimed at flea markets, allowing them to escape from the disposal approximately 600 tonnes of landfill waste per year.
The initiative will examine ways to create similar activities in Sicily to the Veneto, related to distance from a joint project of "maximum reuse and minimum waste.
