Our future, therefore, lies in Recycling. Recycling can save our planet! Each year this ‘Sixth Resource’ (recyclables) saves over 700 million tonnes of CO2 emissions and this is projected to increase to 1 billion tons by 2030.
Global recycling day is celebrated on 18th March, and the Salesians institutions can do their part to celebrate this important day and spread awareness on this sixth important resource which is Recycling.
So, DBGA invites the Salesian institutions to plan a host of activities and celebrations during the month of March and April in recognition of Global Recycling Day. These events will all help in raising awareness on using our resources judiciously, the importance of recycling, and the ways in which we can turn 'waste' into a valuable resource.
