On 5 April 2024, Eco Research took part in the participatory clean-up day “Limpido & Pulito” organised by BZheartbeat,from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm at Piazza Walther in Bolzano. The event saw the active participation of students from the “Dante Alighieri” primary school and the “Josef von Aufschnaiter” secondary school, as well as numerous other people who decided to mobilise to collect abandoned waste in the historic centre of Bolzano and along the Talvera meadows.
Eco Research participated with an information point, where information was provided on the topic of pollution from plastics and micro- and nanoplastics. Other organisations and associations such as SEAB, HCB Foxes, the anti-graffiti hotline BZheartbeat and the Municipality of Bolzano also participated.
Information was provided on the issue of illegal waste disposal and the abandonment of waste in nature, with a focus on cigarette butts.
