Equipped with gloves, garbage bags and tongs, they went along the Rhine to paths, grass verges and squares &#8211; for more cleanliness and quality of life in our immediate surroundings. Thanks to good preparation, everything went smoothly: the meeting point, route and collection points for the filled bags were agreed in advance. AWB Cologne provides materials for &#8220;K\u00f6lle putzmunter&#8221; and collects the filled bags from agreed public locations &#8211; a service that makes civic engagement particularly easy. Our team also paid attention to nature conservation: bushes and sensitive areas were deliberately avoided.    <\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-15379\" src=\"https:\/\/www.iwr-ing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/Muellsammelaktion_Koelle-putzmunter-01-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"6 participants from the IWR engineering office at the \"K\u00f6lle putzmunter\" waste collection campaign\" width=\"420\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.iwr-ing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Muellsammelaktion_Koelle-putzmunter-01-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.iwr-ing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Muellsammelaktion_Koelle-putzmunter-01-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.iwr-ing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Muellsammelaktion_Koelle-putzmunter-01-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.iwr-ing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Muellsammelaktion_Koelle-putzmunter-01-350x467.jpeg 350w, https:\/\/www.iwr-ing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Muellsammelaktion_Koelle-putzmunter-01.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 420px) 100vw, 420px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>Strong commitment, visible success!<\/h3>\n<p>Our campaign had an impact &#8211; the difference was clearly visible after a short time.
