Hi,

Environmental protection is a challenging issue for all the countries around the world. Would you say this issue is deemed of significance in Belgium?

Is the country going green through initiatives like waste management and selective sorting programs, renewable energies, public transport, green awareness campaigns and so forth?

How do you personally commit to improve the environment in your daily life?

We would greatly appreciate if you could tell us more about the various local initiatives for sustainable development in Belgium.

Many thanks in advance!
