REUSING & RECYCLING IS POSSIBLE


Here's an example that shows reusing and recycling is possible. It's a shopping centre in Elskilstuna, near Stockholm, next to the city's recycling plant, which only sells recycled and upcycled items. A way of fightening exaggerated consumerism and protect the environment.

THE DAY THE O PORTIÑO LANDFILL COLLAPSED

Photo: César Quián LaVozDeGalicia.

At 10 o'clock on September 10th 1996, 200.000 cubic metres of rubbish and trash from the Bens landfill collapsed and buried O Portiño leaving a horrible smell through the city, which would last for months and killing a 58-year-old man Joaquín Serantes López, who was washing his car nearby. His body was never found.
That ecological disaster radically changed the treatment of rubbish in our city. City rubbish has since then been treated at rubbish recycling plant in Nostián and the place where the landfill has become a green park of 300.000 square metres.

GROUNDHOG DAY


What will Phil, the groundhog, predict? The arrival of spring or is the winter still staying for a few more weeks? Today's the day, when this American tradition takes place in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, a groundhog emerges from his burrow and if it's cloudy, the spring season will arrive early but if it's sunny and the animal sees its shadow, winter will persist six more weeks. See what happens today...
