Integrating sustainability into everyday life: With various swap events, the waste advice team from Aachen's municipal waste management service is constantly highlighting opportunities to reuse well-preserved items. At the book swap, which will take place for the first time on Saturday, June 13, interested parties can swap books at the Elisenbrunnen rotunda from 11 am to 3 pm. Whether novels, cookbooks, children's and young adult literature, illustrated books or specialist books - a wide variety of genres will be represented.

As part of the campaign day, the show truck of the "Waste separation works" initiative, an initiative of Dual Systems Germany, will also be at the Elisenbrunnen. It will show how correctly separated waste makes a direct contribution to environmental protection. Visitors can also test their knowledge in a quiz and receive information and prizes.
