Tilos “is the island with the greatest rate of recycling globally, and this fills us with hope,” Environment & Energy Minister Kostas Skrekas said on Tuesday, representing the prime minister at an event on the remote SE Aegean island, ANA reports.
Skrekas, State Minister Akis Skertsos, and Environment Secretary-General Manolis Grafakos attended the presentation of the “Just Go Zero” recycling introduced in December 2021 by Polygreen company. The program plans to turn Tilos into the first green island globally with zero household trash, which it has already managed to recycle at the rate of 86%.
