Now that’s what I need to combine Bookbike London, the Little Litter League and the daily commute! And yes, I did have a go of course. Waste management like the majority of European countries is a challenging issue and a lot of it finds its way into the waterways. In fact the River Drina has in large parts become a landfill and floating dumping location. Every year, between 6,000 and 8,000 cubic meters of floating waste are collected at the Hydroelectric Power Plant on the Drina river. As rubbish piles up faster than the authorities can clear it environmental activists in Bosnia are warning that tons of garbage floating down the Balkan country’s rivers are endangering the local ecosystem and people’s health. One-fourth of Bosnia has no access to garbage collection services, and in rural areas this percentage is significantly higher. But there’s great hope with an army of volunteers and activists who are working hard to educate and raise awareness through increaing the engagement of civil society in environmental protection initiatives. #sarajevo #sarajevobosnia #sarajevocity #sarajeva #bookbikelondon #littlelitterleague #thewanderinglondoner #littering #litter #trash #plasticpollution #litterpicking #cleanup #savetheplanet #plogging #noplanetb #recycle #stoplittering #singleuseplastic #trashtag #cleanuptheworld #litteringsucks #garbage #zerowaste #llsammeln #saveourplanet #umweltschutz #umweltverschmutzung #isthisyours #plasticfree (at Sarajevo Old Town Baščaršija - Bosnia and Herzegovina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmbNutbIOgH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
