This community outreach event transforms a local market into an interactive workshop on household waste management. Visitors can learn where to dispose of tricky items like textiles and organic waste, with staff on hand to answer questions about the city's new clothing collection bins.
The campaign emphasizes the environmental impact of textile waste and offers a small gift to those who sort their waste correctly at the market stall. It's a practical, hands-on way to improve recycling habits while enjoying the atmosphere of the Villaverde market.
The event takes place at the San Cristóbal market in the Villaverde district, part of a summer-long initiative by the city council to bring waste education directly to residents.
