Volunteers collect yellow boxes from Kinder-surprise, clips, packaging from fizzy medicine and artificial greenery

Volunteers collect plastic products in Beryslav, Kherson region, which will be handed over to military drone operators for the production of the necessary parts.

This was reported by local activist Yuliya Yemets on Facebook.

" Maybe someone has extra "garbage", which is now worth its weight in gold for "you-know-what" operators who are destroying you-know-who," she wrote.

People can bring clean and dry:

  • yellow boxes from Kinder-surprise;
  • plastic clips for bakery products;
  • plastic packaging from effervescent medicines;
  • plastic greenery, decorative plants of any color.

Yemets noted that such raw materials can be brought to the volunteer center at St. Edward Fuchs, 39 from 9:00 to 12:00.

Earlier, the activist wrote that the center also collects:

  • metal tins and wax for trench candles;
  • plastic lids for the campaign "A lid to enemies";
  • clothes and shoes for the needy.

Earlier, EcoPolitic wrote, that in Khmelnytskyi the Waste Management Center has started accepting people's unnecessary clothes and shoes for reuse.

As EcoPolitic previously reported, in Ukraine, an online map of HDPE plastic cap collection points has appeared, with the money from which eco-activists will purchase a drone for the Armed Forces.
