Environmental Organization in Enniscorthy City Tackles Recycling Challenges

Enniscorthy's environmental association members are facing a major recycling challenge with high quantities of e-cigarettes and cans.

According to a report from independent news, members of the environmental organization association in Enniskorthy, Ireland, carry out environmental activities every Sunday in the town and its surrounding areas. Additionally, some members also participate in cleaning activities during their free time.

Members share the garbage information they have collected on a forum called ChangeX, where they can showcase and exchange their collections, along with the different types of waste they have gathered.

However, many members have complained that a significant number of recyclable items, such as discarded e-cigarettes and cans, among the waste they collect, have become a major issue for recycling.

Despite facing various challenges, the Enniscorthy Urban Conservation Association has achieved a silver award for the first time in this year's competition.
