‘Ecology is not a problem of one backyard, one county, one city, but it concerns all of us around our country and in the world’, Anna Komorowska said on Monday, the 20th of June 2011 at the meeting of the National Ecology Council.

Anna Komorowska, who is the wife of Polish President, Bronislaw Komorowski, has become the chairwoman of the Council in February, when she received the nomination from Jerzy Buzek, the previous leader of the Council. ‘This coalition connects people who represent government, parliament, NGOs, businessmen and regular citizens and shows that such cooperation is possible, and what is more important, brings incredible results’, said the First Lady during the meeting.
The Council itself organizes the National Environment-friendly Competition, which promotes ideas bringing us closer to nature, but at the same time gives opportunity to those who are willing to share their innovative ecology friendly ideas on both technical and educational level. This year’s ceremony is to take place on the 15th of July in Warsaw.

There are many ways to promote recycling, but a love story of two milk plastic bottles is quite an innovative idea. This short film shows how they meet on a production line, fall in love while waiting to be bought on a shop shelf, spend some time in a family fridge and finally, once all the milk has been used up, one of them ends up in a clean recycling bin, while the other one in a regular dumpster. At the end of the film, the viewer is asked whether he or she wants to witness the happy ending - if the answer is yes, then recycling plastic waste is what we should promote.
Nice, light and interesting way of making difficult matters - simple and easy to follow. So, would you like to see the happy end ? Don't separate your plastic waste, select it and recycle it - then it will live forever :)
