Shenzhen Zero Waste Environmental Public Interest Development Center (Shenzhen)
Energy Justice Association (Romania)
Displaying municipal waste incineration pollution and its impact on communities
In their program the twinning partners focus on exchanging information about the impact of municipal waste incineration on communities. This information will serve them as relevant data for pollution prevention and zero waste strategies in both China and Romania. They will carve out bad practices to avoid as well as positive solutions to implement on individual and community level, and postulate measures that governments or companies should implement.
