The importance of recycling correctly this summer: Join the change!

Summer and waste: why is recycling critical?

Increased tourism and outdoor activities multiply the generation of waste, especially single-use plastics. If we do not manage this waste correctly:

• We pollute beaches, rivers and mountains.

• We threaten local fauna (turtles, birds, fish).

• We increase the carbon footprint of our treatment chain.

This is why recycling in summer is not only good practice: it is essential to maintain the natural balance and ensure a sustainable holiday.

5 steps to recycle correctly under the sun ☀️♻️

1. Separate at source:

   • Paper and cardboard (leaflets, clean packaging).

   • Plastics (bottles, cups, wrapping).

   • Glass (bottles, jars).

   • Rest (tissues, dirty packaging).

2. Clean before disposal:
   A quick rinse avoids bad smells and facilitates recycling.

3. Use appropriate containers:

   • Yellow for plastics and cans.

   • Green for glass.

   • Blue for paper.

   • Brown or grey for organic matter and waste.

4. Reduce single-use plastic:

   • Carry your refillable bottle.

   • Avoid straws and disposable cups.

5. Participate in local initiatives:
   Find out about workshops, beach clean-up days or eco-volunteer groups in your area.
