15,000 children restart the e-waste collection race for the new school year

More than 15,000 students and 700 teachers make up the national team that continues the WEEE separate collection campaign in Romania, during 2014-2015 school years. Hundreds of teachers in Bucharest and all over the counties registered their schools and students for the fourth edition of the national program for environment education Recycling Patrol.

Alongside their coordinating teachers, the Patrols’ agents throughout the country are preparing their information and awareness raising strategy to help people understand how they can reduce pollution and protect the environment by responsibly discarding e-waste.

This year the Local Patrols aspire to fulfill again their objective to become national winners: to convince people to collect and send to recycling at least 50 grams of WEEE/ inhabitant of the county (or Bucharest), by 30 August 2015. The children can reach this target only with the help of the Supporters – companies, organizations and consumers who responsibly disposed of e-waste on the account of the Patrols.

By 30 august 2015, each of us has the opportunity to support the teachers and children of the Local Recycling Patrol to become national winners. We can show them that we respect their values and that we can follow their example by disposing of e-waste from storages, offices, homes with one phone call at the Green Line (Telverde) 0800 444 800 (free call from any network) or by bringing it to WEEE drop-off points set up by RoRec Association all over the country.
