With the help of staff at Kofinou Reception Centre, the European Agency for Asylum #EUAA, and the support of our sponsors, we are pleased to announce the installation of two “Ballot Bins” at the Kofinou center in Larnaca district. The balllot bins help to encourage residents to put out cigarettes and/or dispose of them safely by “voting” on any particular topic. To keep it fun and simple, the question “Coffee or Tea?” was chosen, with coffee quickly taking the lead. For more information on how cigarettes can seriously pollute our environment, please read our informative article here: https://lnkd.in/dWDEXXk7 If your business is interested in installing ballot bins at your premises in #Cyprus please contact us for more information. #cigarette #pollution #toxicity #environment

Tackling waste, plastic pollution and other concerning climate issues through education, action, and prevention 🌊🌍
About us
Let’s Make Cyprus Green is a non-profit organization dedicated to raising public awareness about the negative impact of human activities on the environment. Our primary focus is on highlighting the harmful consequences of excessive waste and plastic usage, improper waste disposal, and other pressing climate-related concerns. All while promoting the adoption of a lifestyle based on 1) Reduce 2) Reuse 3) Recycle, in that order of priority. We encourage both residents and visitors to the island to embrace an eco-friendly lifestyle by “going green”. By going green, people acquire knowledge and develop new habits that lead to environmentally conscious and sustainable choices in their way of life. This collective effort helps protect the environment and preserve its natural resources. To bring about effective social transformation, we rely on three pillars: education, action, and prevention. These pillars form the foundation of our comprehensive approach, empowering individuals to become active agents of positive social change.

🌊 Every year, an estimated 8 million tons of plastic end up in the ocean, wreaking havoc on marine life and ecosystems 🐋 🐢 One powerful action we can all take is reducing our reliance on plastic bottles by opting for water filters and reusable bottles instead 💦 By making this switch, we can collectively make a substantial impact in safeguarding our planet’s oceans and environment 🌱 Let’s unite to protect our planet together 🌍 #LetsMakeCyprusGreen #RefillCyprus #SaveOurOceans #PlasticPollution #ClimateAction
