Competent use of recyclable materials. Project “Green Recycling” started in Tatarstan today

Today in Tatarstan a new project “Green Recycling” started. It is implemented by the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources of the Republic in the framework of the Year of Ecology in Russia and the Year of Ecology and Public Spaces in Tatarstan. Its goal is to attract the people’s attention to the preservation of natural resources in the Republic of Tatarstan. “We want to show how secondary raw materials can be re-used, thereby reducing the load on landfills of solid domestic waste,” said Almir Almiyev, head of the Information and Analytical Department of the Ministry of Ecology. The first action in the framework of the Green Recycling project is “Ecology of a Tree”. Today in the workshop of Sergei Zagnojko it was demonstrated what things can be made of sawn branches after sanitization and crowning of trees. From environmentally friendly material, the cratsmen made candlesticks and lamps, impregnating them with a special chemical for safety.
The Ministry of Ecology is waiting for other interesting ideas related to the secondary use of raw materials. You can share them in social networks with a hashtag #ЭкологияДерева or send to the Ministry of Ecology to e-mail ekolog-tat@yandex.ru.
