In organisation оf the Public Utility Company “Vrela” on June 15, 2020 training was held for interested citizens. Interactive training was about composting and its advantages. The aim of the education was to raise awareness of the exploitation of bio-waste, which includes yard green waste, household organic waste, as well as organic waste from agriculture, which usually ends up as communal waste or at landfills which through aerobic composting process can be used as compost – organic fertilizer. Participants were gradually presented with how to start collecting waste alone in their yards in phases with a note of what type of waste can be composed and disassuaded, and what is it from perishable debris that they should not possibly move on to the already collected remains.
Citizens had the opportunity, after training theoretical part, in cooperation with the lecturer, to implement practically, during the training. “Agricultural producers and other households would benefit greatly from composting their waste, because they would benefit from it multiple times” – stated Zarif Mahmutovic, on behalf of the Utility “Vrela” and added that this is one of the modern ways of managing waste, long ago accepted in the countries of Europe. As part of a media campaign inorder to inform citizens about the project but also with the tendency to manage waste in a modern way, the project’s implementers have also produced a promotional TV video available on the YouTube channel, which you can see the following link:
