“We extend our congratulations to the students and teaching staff of the school for their dedication and efforts in collecting batteries and for their commitment to an important campaign to raise awareness among the youngest children about recycling and the environment,” the councilor highlighted.

“This new edition has been a success and in future editions we hope to have as good a reception as this year and with the participation of as many educational centers as possible,” Delgado added.

The councilor presented a commemorative plaque and material for the students of CEIP Ajei as a prize for the campaign. Also, in October the planting of the selected area will take place, which will be carried out by the students and technicians of the Cabildo. “We are studying that the reforestation will be carried out on the island of La Graciosa”, the councilor advanced.

The initiative is promoted by Lanzarote Recicla, dependent on the Island Institution, by the Ecopilas Foundation, and the collaboration of Urbaser. From the Corporation they point out that this project seeks "the reforestation of a degraded environmental area through recycling".
