At the Concordia Convention Center, the “Concordia más Verde” program, under the Undersecretariat of Environment of the Municipality of Concordia, was presented to municipal workers from different areas.
In it, it was proposed to encourage the separation of urban solid waste at the source and differentiated collection, just as it covers the city's residents; for this purpose, Tuesdays of each week were set aside for the collection of dry and clean waste for recycling.
In that sense, the Undersecretary of Environment Constanza Montoreano commented that this is the fourth training session they have conducted. Likewise, she maintained that “the idea is for us all to be environmental promoters. We need this to be contagious, for each person in their own sphere to spread it to their family, to their friends, and that way we can replicate this faster. That everyone takes it home, but also applies it in their workplace,” she exclaimed.
At the same time, the municipal official added: “Separating is very easy, do not be afraid of it. This is a learning process for everyone because it is new. I ask you to have patience because the idea is for Concordia to be a sustainable city. In short, for us all to separate for the good of the planet, for the good of the environment, for the good of all,” she added.
Regarding the implementation of the program in society, Montoreano declared that “people took it well because many of them were already separating and taking it to some place like our headquarters. This is a change of habit and culture, which we are going to achieve with it. That micro-dumps also disappear. That is the idea, that one has a notion of what waste is, that it is not trash, but that it can be turned into something else,” she concluded.
