Yellow Box in the Olivar: Sustainability Gimmick or Real Win for Recycling?

Answer

Is the recycling box at Mercat de l'Olivar just a publicity stunt?

Not necessarily, but it can become one if the project is not tied to real waste logistics and regular reporting. A visible box in Palma’s market may draw attention and start a useful conversation, but it only matters if participation, costs, and results are measured honestly. Without that, it risks being more image than impact.
