Muntinlupa Mayor Jaime Fresnedi said that the citys Environmental Sanitation Center and Health and Environment Cluster will lead the activity, wherein residents, various groups and agencies are expected to bring "useful" junk at the Alabang Town Center parking area.
The activity is being conducted in cooperation with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Ayala Foundation and the Alabang Town Center.
"It would be the city government, other participating firms and factories that are set to become potential buyers of the junk to be brought to the venue," Fresnedi said.
Junk materials will be grouped into traditional and non-traditional wastes.
Non-traditional wastes include junk electronics and electrical equipment, used ink toners/cartridges, lead/acid batteries, compact discs, damaged cellular phones, cell phone batteries, styrofoam and even used motor oil, among others.
Considered traditional wastes are paper, newsprints, magazines with adhesives or binders, white books, mixed paper wastes, cartons, soft drink bottles and aluminum cans. Rhodina Villanueva
