Obeo Collects Waste

Posted on in News

How much waste did we gather this year?

 

On October 3rd, we participated in World Cleanup Day in the La Fleuriaye business area and its surroundings in Carquefou, where our headquarters is located.

Co-organized by Obeo, Wiztivi, and GIE La Fleuriaye, the cleanup brought together 26 people from 10 different companies.

In total, we collected 30.25 kg of waste in one hour, including:

  • 11.5 kg of recyclable waste
  • 5.8 kg of residual waste
  • 8 kg of glass
  • 900 cigarette butts, equivalent to 1.5 liters or 450 grams
  • 4.5 kg of unusual waste: 1 bumper piece, 1 e-cigarette, 1 plexiglass board, wooden planks (signage)

This is slightly less than last year (50 kg). However, we still found as many cigarette butts and a bit more recyclable waste.

This report has been sent to the World Cleanup Day - France association to be counted at both the national and global levels.

A big thank you to all the participants, and see you at the next edition!
