“Electrical equipment waste contains hazardous substances that, once in nature, pollute in the long run, thus impacting our health, the health of all. It is important to understand that they must be collected separately at dedicated collection points. Thus, together with our partners we organized these campaigns to come to the aid of the inhabitants of Botoșani County, providing them with collection points and free lifting services from home. ” says Florin Catz, EST Zonal Coordinator, ECOTIC Association.
