The amount of debris in Ukraine turned into a problem of enormous proportions. Landfill near Holoseievski forests has reached a height of 9-storey building, and Kryukovshina due to a variety of birds creates a crash risk to aircraft on Lviv dump people died.
Landfills have become a time bomb, which leads to an ecological catastrophe.
We throw away everything, and it really leads to landfills. And in Sweden, where protective of the environment, waste is separated for recycling and production of electricity.

In the city of Mena Chernihiv region director KP “Menaraykomunposluga” Valery Kvashuk decided to remedy the situation through its enterprise, as the budget of the city’s waste sorting were not laid.
“First we bought the press and the trailer started to collect garbage in the city, to encourage people. Place a container for separate waste collection throughout the city, now there are about 20. They bring tangible benefits: the city has become much cleaner. People do not throw waste paper or plastic to the landfill, and placed in special containers or collect and bring to us. And they earn a penny, and the city is cleaner, “- said Valery Kvashuk in an interview.
Valery is planning the installation of containers for separate collection of waste throughout the area.
Reception organized a recycled item in rented premises carpentry workshop. For a month here bring about a ton of paper, 500 kg and 500 kg of polyethylene PET bottles. Paper and plastic, the company sends in Chernigov for processing. Who runs these operations director, two sorter and presser.
Valery travels from village to village and tells what causes environmental harm discarded or burnt garbage, and at the point of reception began to bring waste from other areas. Over time, the company will expand.
