Rhine Cleanup Day: A Successful Environmental Effort

Rhine Cleanup Day: A Successful Environmental Effort With the support of the Rhine CleanUP Initiative, a Rhine Clean Up Day organized by Silesia took place on August 19.

Employees, family members and friends met with the aim of clearing the Uedesheim riverbank of trash and litter. Equipped with gloves, trash bags and grabbers, the participants showed great commitment despite the muggy weather. A lot of rubbish was collected: Broken glass, cigarette butts, plastic waste - everything that the restless currents of the Rhine or thoughtless passersby had left behind went into the trash bags.

Silesia’s Rhine CleanUp Day 2023 raises awareness of local environmental problems, and not just among employees. The clean-up campaign also attracted interest and appreciation from visitors to the beaches, thus strengthening the hope that people will take better care of their environment in the future and become more actively involved in keeping the surroundings clean.

In any case, all helpers were unanimous in their opinion: "The action was worthwhile. We will participate again!"
