Recycling and Energy Saving

RE-CYCLE Stations
ECO Mapping is working on a project to build Re-cycle stations and educate communities to make use of this wonderful venture. This includes 5 drums, colour-coded standing next to one another. The community must manage this station for their own benefit! The incomes generated by selling the waste to bigger waste management stations should be put to good use within the community for their needs. This will empower communities to sustainably develop themselves. Schools should use this opportunity to educate the next generation to be environment friendly, and these re-cycling projects can benefit the schools financially.
