Tom
I like “sorting waste” because I actively protect the environment, conserve resources, contribute to sustainability, maintain order in my everyday life, and have a good feeling.

Hana
Name a color, and I’ll tell you which bin it is – and what belongs in it. I love to organize perfectly – even when it comes to waste. Everything has its place!

Abdul
I love waste separation because it conserves resources, protects the environment, and enables a clean future for all of us!

Phillip
I’m bothered by how casually we produce waste – every day, everywhere. Zero Waste City is close to my heart because I believe in a city where resources count and don’t end up in the trash.

Anne
I separate my waste because I want to take responsibility for our environment – for myself, my children, and grandchildren.
