Thursday March 23, 2017 – in Via Maculano, Genoa another “Betty’s Garden” was inaugurated, a 70 m² playground made from the recycled sports shoes of the inhabitants of Genoa. Thanks to an agreement with AMIU and the commitment of the Genoese people who, increasingly attentive to the subjects of sustainability and the ‘recycling cycle’, donated their old sports shoes by dropping them into special containers installed at 30 collection points around the city, the fourth “Betty’s Garden” was created in the area, in Via Maculano. Attending the inauguration were Simone Leoncini and Maria Carla Italia, President and Councillor of the Active Citizenship of the I Centro Est Municipality respectively, Fabio Grubesich, Councillor for Environmental Protection, Marco Castagna, President of AMIU, Luca Zane, Communications Manager of AMIU, Alessandro Baldassari and Graziella Bonini from the AMIU Communications Office, and Nicolas Meletiou.
