Glass recycling in Gandia

GANDIA Town Council has taken steps to promote the recycling of glass containers during the Fallas festivals this year. The initiative aims to raise awareness among the citizens of Gandia about the importance of correctly separating glass container waste during of the festivities.

To encourage responsible waste management, the Spanish non-profit glass recycling organisation Ecovidrio will be clearly labelling the glass disposal containers near the premises used for the festival.

At the same time, environmental educators will be visiting different organisations to inform them about the importance of recycling glass containers and the benefits that this brings to the environment and society.

The advantage of glass is that it is a resource rather than waste, so the Gandia fallas are an ideal opportunity to drive the recycling message home.

The initiative has the sup- port of the Valencian government, which is keen to improve the sustainability of the festivities and make them more respectful of the environment through proper waste management of
