The person who will bring the most interesting and necessary things will be awarded with plenty of unexpected and sustainable prizes from our partner organizations. One of those prizes is the coupon for the package of extremely nice and fertile Sysav soil, made out of the recycling of garden and park waste from the whole Skane region.

We have talked a lot about Sysav. But what does Sysav do for sustainability? Well, Sysav is one of the companies whose every-day job makes the world a better place to live. It is the company mainly responsible for a greener and cleaner Skåne. As the official website of the company states: “Sysav South Scania Waste Company receives, recycles and treats waste from households and businesses in southern Skåne”. Sysav’s concept applies an eco-cycle perspective, and is based on total solutions and high expertise to combine various treatment methods for dealing with each type of waste in the most sustainable way according to its properties. Waste is a resource and, as far as possible, should be reused. Sysav therefore recycles waste in the form of materials and energy, and only a small proportion is sent to landfill.” Sysav strives to minimize the negative ecological footprint, which almost all human activities obviously have, with the help of modern innovative technologies and sustainable approach.

If you want to know more about this very interesting topic in our waste-riddled world, you are very welcome to take part in the panel discussion on the topic “Innovations and Sustainability”, which will take place in Orkanen C231, at 16.00 on April 26. The representative of Sysav, Rustan Nilsson and Miljana Horvat, the Associate Professor of the Department of Architectural Science in Ryerson University, Toronto, will answer all your questions and together, lecturers and audience, will look for the new innovative solutions to the world’s environmental problems.
