The Uniti Per l'Ambiente association is organizing the second spring festival for next Saturday 31 March dedicated to cleaning the territory of Castiglione del Lago in the province of Perugia.
The II Spring Festival is an initiative of UPA which will involve the hunting associations that together with other volunteers will dedicate themselves to cleaning some areas of the territory of Castiglione del Lago on the morning of next Saturday.
The initiative was organized, as well as by UPA, by the municipal administration of Castiglione del Lago and by Tsa-Trasimeno environmental services; Hunting Associations will be present including Arcicaccia, Enalcaccia, Federcaccia, Liberacaccia and Arbit, the Association for the Recovery of Traditional Inland Boats. The initiative, together with the UPA, sees the municipal administration of Castiglione del Lago and the Tsa-Trasimeno environmental services as organizers. UPA is the union of nine associations established with the common intent of protecting and safeguarding the territory.
Organizers and participants will meet at around 8.00 at the Circolo di Badia and after the breakfast offered, at around 9.00, the activities will begin and everyone will move to the locations identified by the association; around 12.30 pm, all waste collected in the Castiglione del Lago recycling center will be transported.
The area is very affected by the uncivil habit of abandoning waste for this reason the hunting associations and Arbit have decided to make their common contribution to safeguarding the environment by joining efforts to optimize results.
Precisely the hunters who move through the woods reaching even those areas that are generally not very frequented and therefore more subject to the abandonment of bulky materials, rubble and more, will report the presence of waste.
The board of Uniti per l'Ambiente explains "The decision to form an association was therefore dictated by the desire to make the territorial knowledge that our members possess available to the whole community, in order to create a control network for the safeguarding of an environment that we feel the duty to protect and to leave clean for future generations ".
