Water

Promoting drinking water, water reuse and raising awareness on the value of water can be part of a circular economy approach. In Valladolid, actions are carried out to: promote a plastic-free water culture; reuse water for irrigation in public institutions; and use green infrastructure. The reduction of single-use plastic is promoted through the creation of a network of water dispensers in Valladolid and an online map to share their location. Water reuse is fostered through the development of a rainwater collection system in public institutions such as schools. The aim is twofold: reducing the risk for flooding and reusing rainwater to irrigate schools and urban gardens. A third aspect promoted in the sector is raising awareness among students (from school to university) on green infrastructure and the importance of the water cycle in Valladolid.
