Detailed description of your activity: «THE 'LIDS-IRIS' CAMPAIGN» has been running in the Vologda region since January 2020. This involves collecting lids from food products for subsequent recycling.
WHICH LIDS WE ACCEPT:
Screw-on caps marked with 2 (HDPE), 02 (PE-HD), 4 (LDPE), Tetra Pak, and Bericap (from food items); from Tetra Paks; from plastic bottles and smaller containers (e.g., water, soda, milk and fermented dairy products, including «Immunele,» and certain non-food liquids—like windshield washer fluid in 5-liter bottles, etc.); from pouches (e.g., ketchup, condensed milk); any other caps marked with the triangle symbols «2,» «02,» HDPE, PE-HD, or 4 LDPE; cap rings and handles from 5-liter bottles are also suitable for the campaign.
My environmental goals for 2025: In 2025, I aim to set myself as an example of environmental leadership. I plan to organize educational projects on separate waste collection and attract like-minded individuals to volunteer activities focused on greening and cleaning up areas. I want to develop initiatives to reduce our carbon footprint, promote the use of eco-friendly technologies, and collaborate with organizations to build a sustainable and responsible future together.
Accomplishments: In 2025, I successfully implemented several significant environmental projects. I organized a series of events for recycling collection, tree planting, and coastal zone cleanup. I conducted educational workshops on eco-friendly habits, inspiring many to change their behavior. Through these combined efforts, we managed to reduce waste and raise ecological awareness within the community.
