Kercem Local Council and Green MT
decided to thank those residents who participate in the collection of
recyclables through the grey bag by giving them a ponseitta on Tuesday 11th
December. The ponseitta was given to those families where the recycling bag was
found outside their doors.
Kercem Local Council and the waste
carrier in the locality are very proactive for the collection of separated
recyclables. From Kercem, Green MT recovers 940 kilos weekly of recyclable materials.
It was actually the waste carrier of
the locality who recommended such an initiative and Green MT accepted the
proposal. Last Tuesday 232 households out of a total of 580 occupied households
had a grey bag outside their household. This means that 40% of the households
within Kercem are recovering recyclables in this locality. It is pertinent to
point out that a number of what are described as occupied households are
resided only during the summer months.
Green MT takes this opportunity to
thank its Eco Councillors for taking an early trip to Gozo and be at Kercem by
8 am to start checking the roads for the grey bag. A thank you goes also to the
Local Council for distributing these ponseittas.
Green MT wishes one and all A Merry
Christmas.
