In November, two weeks will be dedicated to raising awareness, informing and educating citizens on the reduction of waste materials (preventing productions and minimizing waste quantities).
The first week is coordinated nationally, but with an international slant, by the Italian National UNESCO Commission (Nov. 10-16, 2008) and will feature the participation of national institutions and associations including the National Waste Observatory, Federambiente, A21L and Legambiente.
The Second Week is European and coordinated by ACR+ (The European Association of Cities and Regions for Recycling and Sustainable Management of Resources) from Nov. 22-30, 2008.
Both of these initiatives will be presented during the course of Ecomondo, the 12th International Trade Fair on Material and Energy Recovery and Sustainable Development, which will be held in Rimini (Italy) from November 5-8, 2008, at the Federambiente stand.
