Recyclable Event in Rosario: What is the Proposal About?
What the recycling event will be like.
This initiative to promote more sustainable practices is usually carried out in different parts of the city, where residents of Rosario can bring their recyclables such as plastic, paper, cardboard, glass, cans, and styrofoam, clean and dry. They can exchange them for sustainable products.
The goal is to promote waste separation at home, thus encouraging circular economy. The aim is to reduce, reuse, and recycle to decrease waste burial and reduce pressure on the environment.
Organized by the Secretariat of Environment and Public Spaces, this activity is part of the actions that the municipality implements within the framework of the Local Climate Action Plan Rosario 2030.
Circular Economy
“Exchange your recyclables” also collaborates with social enterprises in the city that collect and revalue the materials provided by residents.
According to the municipality’s data, during 2023, 19 recyclable exchange events were held, with a total of 4368 participants. In total, 16.8 tons of waste were collected, averaging 3.85 kilos per person.
