Leverkusen fights wild garbage: 220 tons less in the last year!
The team of Job Service Funding Leverkusen (JSL) has impressive 220 tons last year Garbage collected in Leverkusen and disposed of properly. This measure published by the city administration not only serves to clean the city area, but also promote the employment of people with a limited access to the labor market.
In view of the challenges in the area of waste management, such initiatives are of fundamental importance for a clean and lively city. The JSL uses the activity of collecting garbage to strengthen social cohesion and at the same time achieve ecological advantages.Community efforts and successes
The garbage of the garbage was mainly carried out by hand, with the JSL teams also traveling in the city with vehicles and cargo bikes. The citizens of Leverkusen play a crucial role by pointing out wild garbage accumulation via the urban defect detector. Angelika Orttmann from the JSL emphasizes the successful cooperation with the citizens, which is funded by the "Clean Leverkusen" program.
JSL managing director Thomas Schorn emphasizes the dual function of this initiative: it contributes to the cleanliness of the city area and at the same time offers opportunities for work qualification. People who often did not have access to the labor market for a long time find a possibility for practical employment.
environmental protection and social responsibility

The initiatives for reducing garbage and promoting a circular economy can ultimately lead to resource efficiency and better environmental protection. The JSL therefore not only contributes to relieving the urban budget, but also to improve the quality of stay in Leverkusen.With the implementation of concrete measures for environmental education and the support of zero-wastest initiatives, Leverkusen can act as a pioneer in the area of sustainable waste management and community engagement.
