[01] Recycle Week in full swing in Thessaloniki

The week-long public awareness campaign showcase includes a number of activities for young and old alike.

The events include a "Recycling Village" at the Mediterranean Cosmos commercial center, where receptacles have been set up for the collection of all recyclable materials, including old household appliances, a Recycling Amusement Park that takes children on an exciting journey of recycling-related games while teaching them the entire process of recycling.

In tandem with the events, an exhibition of Recycled Art is on display, titled "Nothing goes go waste", featuring works of art made from recyclable materials and discarded objects.
