As part of the Israeli Recycling Day, which was marked by the corporation for the third time this year, President Isaac Herzog hosted on Wednesday the heads of winning authorities and councils, who received decorations from Environmental Protection Minister Tamar Zandberg and Tamir CEO Rani Eidler.
"The responsibility for protecting and sustaining our world lies with each and every one of us. Recycling always begins with the action of the individual, in his private home, office work, and vacation," Herzog said.
Eidler noted, "Local authorities have a great impact on the cooperation and trust of residents. I call on each and every one of you to make a small effort at home toward an enormous contribution to the environment."
Petah Tikva received a commendation for the progress it has made in the field of recycling since last year.
