Tatarstan has entered the TOP 5 leading regions for waste paper collection
Over 1.2 million kg of recyclable materials were collected by more than 500 thousand participants of the All-Russian waste paper collection campaign #Boombattle, which is held in support of the national project "Ecology". Among the best participants is Tatarstan, which entered the top five. In a month and a half, residents of the republic collected 24.3 tons of waste paper.
"Now work across the country to build a circular economy is underway, many measures are being implemented within the framework of the national Ecology project: this includes building a structure for separate waste collection, and creating capacities for their processing and recycling," said Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Victoria Abramchenko. #Boombattle solves an urgent task – it increases the level of awareness of Russians about the importance of sorting, thereby contributing to the return to circulation of a significant amount of waste paper, the Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation noted.
Residents of Russia will learn about the possibilities of separate collection and recycling of household waste at eco-educational events that take place in support of Boombattle throughout the country: excursions to processing plants, eco-lessons and eco-lectures for schoolchildren and students. Such events have already taken place in 48 regions.
Acceptance of waste paper continues until November 15. You can view the reception points by following the link https://бумбатл .national projects.rf/.
