As part of the public educational program, SIA “Auto pārstrāde” addresses the new generation of residents — future car owners. Encouraging them to think about car recycling. A time will come when they will have to take care of environmental protection and resource conservation. The average age of cars recycled in Latvia is 20 years. For example, a new TESLA, which this year started driving through Riga’s streets, will likely be recycled in about 20 years. It may happen that today's schoolchildren, currently in primary grades, will hand over this TESLA for recycling in twenty years.
Contest goal: To promote the development of creative abilities and foster young people's understanding of proper handling of end-of-life vehicles.
Contest announcement: The Contest will be announced on the start date:
through invitation emails to secondary schools;
on the social network “Facebook”;
on the website www.autoparstrade.lv.
Contest participants and registration.
The Contest is intended for students of all grades. To apply for participation, school/class representatives are invited to send works to the email: [email protected]. Prior registration is not mandatory.
Task:
Prepare a joint visual work of the class in the form of a visual meme on the topic — “end-of-life vehicles.” The work should depict any situation related to end-of-life vehicles.

Story before the task:
Nowadays, we often hear about GREEN THINKING. But what does it actually mean is not always clear. Somewhat unexpectedly, green thinking primarily implies GREEN ACTION, meaning proper handling of the waste we create. But what to do if you need to “dispose of” a car, and how is it even possible to “throw away” a car? To find out, we invite you to watch a video clip - Act Responsibly!
Cars that have outlived their useful life are called end-of-life vehicles. Each end-of-life vehicle contains hazardous substances (fuel, various oils, coolant, and others). Therefore, an end-of-life vehicle is classified as HAZARDOUS WASTE. An end-of-life vehicle cannot simply be “thrown away.” Proper action is to deliver it to specialized recycling companies authorized by the “State Environmental Service.” In these companies, vehicles are processed: all hazardous components, glass, tires, large plastics, and other materials are separated. After these processes, the vehicles are ready for final recycling. Final recycling is done by placing the vehicle into large metal shredders, where they are crushed into small pieces. These crushed metal pieces are then delivered to metal manufacturing plants, where new metal parts are produced.
