Positive initiatives in waste management practices were undertaken by PAKOMAK, the first Macedonian company that has been holding the license for selecting and processing of packaging waste since January 2011. The company has a proactive role in promoting the importance of packaging waste and its management, with a special emphasis on projects that increase the awareness of the whole society, especially that of the young population. Some of the projects that increase the eco-awareness of young population will be presented in the paper. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12188/2676 | ISSN: | 978-1-78714-500-9 | DOI: | 10.1108/978-1-78714-499-620171005 |
