household
involved in recycling activities. "We
can see that every year there is a
reduction
in the volume
of
trash
that ends up in the
land
fi

. When I was the head
of Sanitation and Parks, it was 2,300 cubic meters per day.
Currently it’s 1,200 cubic meters," she explained. "So you can
see the
reduction
, which goes to
composting center
, also in
the community, and waste management centers."
The mayor said the city also runs a program for children
called eco school.
"The school does not only teach about the environment but
also introduces environmental-friendly practices, such as the
eco school program where they bring their own plates and
cups to reduce plastic waste. They even don’t use drinking
straws," added Tri Rismaharini.
The conference will continue until Thursday.
