Christmas trees have bought joy and happiness in Moldovans homes, but now local authorities have the duty to recycle them. Thus, the capital Housing Department urges residents to store the trees at the collection platforms.

They will be turned into fertilizer for the plants and trees in "Dendrarium" city park.

The collection of trees will begin Wednesday, January 18th. This practice has become a tradition for Chisinau authorities.

Last year, officials have sent over 1,500 trees for recycling.
