Visit to recycling facility - Poland

A group of students with accompaning teachers participating in Erasmus Project There is no o ther living planet visited a recycling company to learn about waste management and sustainability. Upon arrival, they were greeted by the CEO of Hamburger Recycling who explained the importance of recycling in reducing landfill waste and conserving natural resources. The tour began with a short introduction and presentation led by company’s worker. The students were amazed to learn how advanced technology, such as conveyor belts and magnets, helps automate the process. Next, they observed the crushing and shredding machines that break down materials before they are processed into reusable raw materials. The guide explained how these recycled materials are later used to make new products, such as packaging, clothing, and even furniture. The students also got small promotional gifts. The visit left participants inspired to be more conscious about waste disposal and to promote recycling in their community. As they left the facility, they discussed ideas for their ecology project, eager to apply what they had learned.

           Visit to Coal Power Plant Converted into Art Gallery
Students visited a historic coal mine power plant that had been transformed into a stunning art gallery, blending industrial history with contemporary creativity. As they entered, they were captivated by the preserved machinery, massive turbines, and towering brick walls, now serving as a dramatic backdrop for modern artwork. The guide explained how the site once powered an entire coal mine but was later repurposed to promote sustainability and culture. Walking through the galleries, they admired paintings, sculptures, and installations that reflected themes of industry, energy, and environmental change. An interactive exhibit allowed them to explore the impact of coal mining on both communities and nature. The visit left them inspired, seeing how an old industrial site could be reinvented into a space for artistic expression and learning.
Observation of compost production facility works - Italy

A group of students and teachers who participated in the Erasmus Project There is no other living planet were going to visit the compost production center in Italy to learn about the work in the compost production center. However, due to the renovation and maintenance work in the compost production facility, the facility could not be observed. The management of the compost production center made a gesture and came to us with a different offer.
They suggested that the compost production center could be introduced by their own engineers in the laboratory class of the Italian school. We were pleased with this offer.
We were welcomed by New Vision educators, who explained the importance of reducing organic waste, protecting natural resources and fertile soil. Then, the company employee led a short introduction and presentation.

 The company's approach of outlining the stages of compost processing was well received by the children, they were able to observe how compost production is carried out, and at the end of the presentations, a discussion was held with the company managers.
The company management also gave the students small promotional gifts of plant seeds and soil obtained from compost. The visit inspired the participants to be more aware of the importance of fertile soil and to encourage composting in their communities.
