The Minister of Environment and Spatial Planning, Oliver Dulić, was present today (May 31, 2010) at the start of the campaign for management of packaging waste and systems for recycling that waste, which will be conducted by Sekopak, an organization formed by the companies from Serbia.

On that occasion, Dulić pointed out the campaign in 2010 would be focused on 5% of all packaging waste and that that percentage would be increase by 5% every year, so that 30% of all packaging waste would be recycled in 2014.

The Minister announced that each city would have its own special containers for separating packaging waste, which would be separated in recycling yards as special raw materials.

He said that waste automobile tires were being recycled in Serbia, as well as that the works were underway on the completion of the recycling system for car batteries and electrical waste.

According to him, our country annually produces nearly 600,000 tons of packaging and packaging waste that ends on landfills or in the nature.

Dulić pointed out that the aim for the next few years was that 10,000 jobs be created and that a new industrial branch, the one that had not even existed before, be formed

He opened the first International Ecology Trade Fair today in Niš and spoke to the chiefs of the regions of Nišava, Jablanica, Toplica and Pčinj, as well as to the mayors and presidents of the municipalities, within the scope of realization of the "Green Caravan of Serbia" campaign.
