Free Books for Your Plastic Waste Campaign is taking place in Veliko Tarnovo for the second time. The event will be held on 24th April, Sunday, from 10 am till 1 pm; the venue will be Mall Veliko Tarnovo.

All you need to do is hand in 1 kg of plastic waste and in return you will receive a voucher for a free book which you can choose from a book stall on the site. If you bring 2 kg of plastic you will get 2 vouchers. A third voucher will be not given no matter of the quantity of the rubbish you have.

The campaign last year was very successful – 14 tons of plastic waste was handed in and more than 11,000 books were given away. According to some studies the energy saved from the recycling of just 1 plastic bottle is enough to power a computer for 25 min!
