"garbage is money, not trash" that is one thing I remember, when I was in high school wherein projects and resourcefulness are taught. Up until this age of mine, I always apply what I learned and believe into it, because it's really true. All you have to do is the process of separation or segregation, with a little discipline and of course concern for mother Earth. And yes you will be rewarded with cash.
A reason why, I always admire every organization or group encouraging people to have continuous effort to promote green living and awareness on proper solid waste management, like the Greenhills Shopping Center on its fifth run of Cash for Scrap: A Recyclers’ Bazaar that will happen on June 29.
As your usual routine in one of Metro Manila’s most-loved retail destinations, on Sunday, June 29 it will change a little bit because they calling everyone to participate and to bring their recyclable wastes at Parking 1, fronting G-Strip Building between 8 AM to 12 NN. Cash for Scrap 5 will be participated by Manila’s top recyclers.
“Cash for Scrap continues to draw in more support year after year. In 2013 alone, we were able to gather over 2,000kg of paper products, 1,650 kg of used lead acid batteries, among other forms of recyclable and reusable waste,” says Cathy Ko, General Manager of Greenhills Shopping Center.
