In
the latest issue of the "Mesečni utrip" magazine, published by the Association of
Municipalities of Slovenia, the innovative introduction of ECOdip waste
collection containers on ecological islands in the municipality of Jesenice
takes centre stage. ECOdip containers represent an innovative approach to
sustainable waste management, enabling discreet and efficient sorting and
subsequent recycling, while maintaining the aesthetic appearance of urban
spaces. The proactive efforts of the municipality of Jesenice in environmental
conservation are gaining recognition at the national level, as highlighted in
the latest issue of the "Mesečni utrip" magazine.
According
to the Municipality of Jesenice, the use of submerged ecological islands has
additional advantages in the provision of public waste collection and disposal
services. Due to the larger capacity of the disposal containers, they need to
be emptied less frequently, and the maintenance of the containers is minimal,
contributing to a longer lifespan of submerged containers compared to
traditional ones. The municipality assesses that the project of introducing
submerged ecological islands has been very successful, emphasizing that an
ecological island is not just a conventional location with containers but a
well-maintained and clean space in nature, complemented by the wooden framework
of the containers.
