Sustainability and Environment

  • Pupils will try to answer what environmental sustainability is and why is it important. 

    They will also talk about recycling and how and what can we recycle.

    As one of the renewable free source of energy is solar energy. We decided to make mini solar car using old parts of a broken car toy, plastic bottle cap, solar panel, parts of an old vacuum cleaner, fan blade of a broken toy in order to show everyone what we can do locally. Here you can see the result:

    Serbia is currently recycling between 5 and 8 percent of municipal solid waste. We can see the evidence that the things are slowly changing for better but we believe that this is not enough. That we need to do things faster. Currently in Belgrade, there are very few possibilities for a person wishing to recycle, and they are in general divided into two basic options:

    1. Recycling islands in Belgrade

    2. The Eco-Bag Action

    Every household can once a week leave the plastic garbage in a bag (provided by the district) in front of its residential building, and garbage collectors will come and pick it up.

    3. We have also talked about biofuels
