"We are launching the new edition of the national ecological education program "Even the little ones do great things!" with the desire to stimulate children's interest in collecting and recycling waste and, at the same time, to develop civic spirit towards environmental protection and the efficient use of resources.”, declares Valentin Negoiță, President of ECOTIC.
"From my own experience, I know that, for kindergarten children, a large part of the toys only work with batteries. I remember with pleasure, a few years ago, when my daughter came home telling me that we had to collect the “bacteria” separately to take them to kindergarten. Here we are at the 14th edition, after a beautiful journey in which numerous children, together with their parents, were involved. The ECOTIC BAT team put a lot of heart into this beautiful project and we thank all the teachers for their involvement!", declares Dragoș Călugăru, General Manager of ECOTIC
