1 The new WASTE SORTING from A to Z

2 A FRESH START AMA and Roma Capitale choose to change the waste sorting process and cooperate with CONAI, Consorzio Nazionale Imballaggi (National Packaging Consortium), to enhance postconsumer materials. The new reclaim and recycle service will involve, one after another, all Rome municipalities improving the appearance of the city and the life of Roman citizens. A NEW SERVICE With your help, we plan to manage a new, more efficient and sustainable waste sorting service. To do so, we will change our daily habits and cooperate all together to develop an effectively functioning system which significantly reduces waste and increases advantages. A NEW GOAL The goal is ambitious, but together we can make it. We can increase the percentage of waste sorting up to 70% by 2021, as established by Roma Capitale Plan for the reduction and management of post-consumer materials [Piano per la riduzione e la gestione dei materiali post-consumo di Roma Capitale (PMPC)], approved by the City Council. In this way, we will save a large amount of material and energy, but most of all we will have the satisfaction of living in a better city which respects and acts responsibly towards the environment. WHERE SHOULD I PUT IT? Here is a useful memo to help you sort waste even better. Find out the material or the objects you want to get rid of in the alphabetical list. The nearby rectangle will show you the colour of the right container FIND OUT MORE > To learn more about the new service please contact AMA green line: or visit the AMA website at amaroma.it
