Responsible Waste Recycling in Asturias: A Guide to Selective Waste Collection

In Asturias, citizens play an essential role in recycling through selective waste collection. This system encourages individuals to separate their waste and place it in designated containers for better reusability in industries. The yellow bin is for plastics like bottles and cans, the green bin is for glass, the blue bin for paper and cardboard, and the brown bin for organic waste. Remember, toxic products and certain items like batteries must be disposed of in special containers. Effective recycling conserves energy and reduces environmental impact.
