Why does this matter to Belgians? The campaign highlights community resilience and environmental awareness. It also raises questions about how regulations impact local initiatives. Key points include:
- Adaptation to EU packaging laws by broadening accepted cap types
- Continued strong community participation in plastic collection
- Support for guide dog training, benefiting visually impaired Belgians
