Cleanup Event

Agency of Protected Areas of the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources Protection of Georgia organized a cleanup event at Bughdasheni Lake managed reserve. It is worth noting that Javakheti Protected Areas have been established recently and therefore it is rather crucial to maintain cleanliness in the area and to raise the environmental awareness of the local population. 
Chairman of the Agency of Protected Areas Rati Japaridze organized the event and together with the schoolchildren and the rangers cleared the area from plastic bottles, bags and other household waste. The participants of the event were informed about how much damage the plastic does to the environment and what preventive measures need to be taken. The purpose of the cleanup event was to raise the environmental awareness of the youth and to facilitate the preservation of natural heritage.
