Sorting at source for the Corfu Half Marathon rubbish

Half Marathon

CORFU. Green Volunteers are putting across the message of recycling and sorting at source.

Corfu Green Spots are giving their own support at today's races with special refuse bins for sorting at source. The initiative from Let's Do It Corfu is being supported by the Municipal Department for Voluntary Work and the Cleansing Service.



At the 4 race water stations there are coloured bins to separate the type of rubbish. The groups supporting the initiative (Kerkyra Psila, Cafe Briki, Corfu Biofuels, Corfu Recycling Centre, Greek Guides) are sorting at source and the organic waste will go for composting.



It can be seen that the bin for organic waste is much smaller than the other bins, showing that there is less of this waste than recyclable materials.
