The activity will consist of a 45-minute talk about how pollutants get from our homes to our tables and another 45-minute visit to the El Retiro vegetable garden. In this activity we will learn how much water we consume, how we generate pollutants in our homes, how they can reach the environment and the food chain. Activity carried out with the collaboration of the following projects and grants: BIOARBIO “Generating biomass from reclaimed water: an opportunity for the Circular Bioeconomy” funded by the Community of Madrid (IND2019/AMB-17191) y developed by SWQ Group in collaboration with Grupo EULEN and the National Institute for Agricultural and Food Research and Technology (INIA).
