The mission aims to raise awareness and urge citizens to avoid using plastic products on their holidays and switch to green solutions. According to surveys, in Greece each consumer produces 68kg of plastic waste, of which only 10% is recycled.

The rest ends up mainly in landfills, while a significant amount of plastic pollutes the environment, with the seas being flooded every year with almost 11,500 tons of plastic, which means that every day, more than 1 million plastic bottles end up in the sea.

The Municipality said: “Thank you all for yourdaily recycling efforts. We hope that you will take part even more through this educational project.”

Terms and Conditions for the draw
The winner will be chosen by random electronic selection of the number. The prize will be sent to the winner by courier following confirmation of their details. To take part it is necessary to complete the Green Mission tasks and acquire the necessary points.
