This year's PET Cup cleansed the Tisza from forty-five thousand plastic bottles

The participants of the PET Cup gathered this record amount of plastic bottles in the Upper Tisza region.

The self-built fleet of plastic bottle vessels collected this huge amount of 65 cubic meters of waste during six days between Szatmárcseke and Tiszamogyorós. This year's competition placed great emphasis on the properly assessment of the waste situation on the shores of the Tisza and to examine the water quality; water samples were also taken. (MTI)
