The ecological quarter-2005 in Lutsk begins with the citywide campaign "Let's Make the World Clean!!!". It will take place in the regional center of Volyn from March 14 to 19. As part of the event, collection of recyclables, namely waste paper and PET bottles, is being organized at the city's educational institutions. \n \nIn developed countries, separate waste collection, as well as its recycling, is a familiar, everyday matter. True, the level of ecological culture there is beyond comparison with ours. Saving money is also a clear and considerable incentive for organized waste sorting. The result of public activity in this regard is a developed industry for processing secondary resources. In Ukraine, however, work on separate waste collection and its processing is only gaining momentum. \n \nAccording to the initiators of the campaign "Let's Make the World Clean!!!" – the Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection of the Lutsk City Executive Committee – the involvement of young people in the campaign is no accident. It can be predicted in advance that the event will have not only an ecological and economic effect for society, but will also contribute to fostering the ecological culture of its participants. According to Oksana Tarabaniuk, head of the Department of Nature Management and Environmental Protection, the school curriculum does not yet fulfill such a necessary function as ecological education. \n \nA co-organizer of the campaign is the private enterprise "Vtorma-Lutsk". Its employees, during the waste collection period, will provide free services for the removal of secondary resources. In addition, for educational institutions, participation in the campaign is also an opportunity to earn some money. As the director of the enterprise, Mykola Petrovskyi, assured, the submitted waste will be paid for at higher rates. \n \nCampaigns of this type are somewhat instructive for adults as well. After all, they draw the attention of Lutsk residents to the problems that exist and show the possible achievements of joint work. \n
