Riga: from food waste to healthy off-season food
2018
The Municipality of Riga decided to turn a waste landfill called “Getlini” into an innovative and ecological waste management site where food waste is transformed into energy. The heat produced is used for greenhouses’ heating to produce off-season tomatoes, distributed through the primary supermarket chains to the citizens of Riga. Getlini also became a place where citizens can be sensitized to responsible waste management.
