Integral waste management and renewable energies in sports institutions were the main topics.
The government of the province of Santa Fe, through the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, continues to make progress in strengthening environmental policies in the different localities of the province of Santa Fe. Within this framework, the Minister of Environment and Climate Change, Erika Gonnet, and the senator for the department of Vera, Osvaldo Sosa, visited the cities of Vera and Calchaquí, where different actions were planned and equipment acquired through different provincial contributions was highlighted.
VERA
First of all, accompanied by the Mayor Paula Mitre, they visited the Huracán Football Club, an institution that, thanks to a contribution from the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change through the Environmental, Solar and Educational Club (CASE) program, has nine solar panels that allow economic savings. In addition, Gimnasia Fútbol Club, also located in the town of Vera, has two solar water heaters obtained by CASE that provide hot water to the changing rooms.
In addition, a meeting was held with the technical team at the municipal building. “Environmental issues involve long-term processes, which require the commitment of the territorial heads. For this reason, together with the Mayor of Vera, we met to articulate initiatives related to the promotion of waste management and forestation.
We know the problems that the area is going through with the open-air landfill and it is essential to jointly design a strategy adapted to the reality of the locality”, said Minister Gonnet.
For his part, Mitre emphasized: “To think of a future for the city is to take into account an environmental policy, generating the necessary conditions for our space on the planet to be increasingly sustainable and healthy, which is why we are working intensely together with the technical teams of the Ministry to project the city we want”.
“The repeated situations that we have been experiencing related to environmental problems lead us to accelerate efforts to advance in fundamental solutions and so that the citizens of Veracruz do not have to suffer the consequences”, he pointed out.
CALCHAQUI
Meanwhile, in Calchaquí, Minister Gonnet met in the Municipality with Mayor Rubén Cuello and later visited the GIRSU equipment that was delivered within the framework of the Include Environment Plan.
In this regard, the Minister highlighted: “Today in Calchaquí we are showing facts, working with the Mayor, the recyclers, the schools. I want to congratulate all the people who are working on these projects because they are responsible for the fact that the proposals we brought at the time are already in place and working,” explained the Minister.
“I am very happy because we already have the great majority of the elements we need acquired”, commented Mayor Ruben Cuello and explained that “the idea was to show everything we have been working on” in relation to waste management. “For all this, I want to thank Erika and Governor Omar Perotti for everything they do for us and for our city,” he concluded.
As the last point of the tour, the officials visited the Calchaquí Football Club Civil Association, where two solar water heaters are installed to provide water to the locker rooms of the city’s athletes.
It is worth mentioning that the environmental investment in the town exceeds 25 million pesos. On the one hand, through the Plan Incluir Ambiente (Include Environment Plan) and various contributions from the Government of Santa Fe in the area of waste, the town has acquired containers, a press and a chipper. In addition, progress is being made in the construction and assembly of a shed for its recycling center. On the other hand, together with the United Nations Environment Program, through joint efforts of the Government of Santa Fe, it agreed to the testing and implementation of the road map for the closure of open dumps.
In addition to all the aforementioned equipment, the town of Calchaquí acquired ONE bicycle for urban recycling with electric assistance, 40 bicycles for early childhood, and 10 bicycles to continue promoting active mobility, and a tractor, chainsaws and chainsaws to strengthen public tree planting policies.
