Desnogorsk collected 600 kg of recyclables and thousands of participants at the Ekotochka environmental festival

In Desnogorsk, the fourth city environmental festival "Ekotochka" was held, which brought together more than 1,000 residents and guests. The event was held on several thematic platforms, each of which contributed to the formation of ecological culture.

More than 600 kg of secondary raw materials were collected and sent for processing at the “Refining Point” site. This was the largest result of the festival to collect waste for reuse.

The Test Purchase Point platform helped participants create more than 550 eco-friendly food baskets, which contributes to the reduction of single-use plastic and packaging.

Within the framework of the “Point of Rational Consumption”, participants created more than 800 tea fees using natural ingredients without unnecessary packaging.

Green Tea Point has treated more than 600 people to soup and tea in edible cups, demonstrating alternatives to plastic utensils.

Doctors conducted more than 450 free check-ups at the Health Point, popularizing a healthy lifestyle as part of environmental care.

More than 50 new volunteers have joined the movement at the “Good Deeds Point”, and a special house – “Ecohotel for insects” – has been installed at the “Ecomasters Point” to draw attention to biodiversity conservation.

Governor of the Smolensk region Vasily Anokhin noted the importance of such initiatives for the region, emphasizing their role in the formation of a responsible attitude to the environment.
