The action was carried out as part of a project to collect waste vehicles on islands, national parks and nature parks.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the waste cars, some of which are over 30 years old, was handed over by the owners to an authorized collector as part of the action, who removed them from their yards.<\/p>\n<p>As <strong>Vinko Vuku\u0161i\u0107<\/strong>, head of the waste car management system at the Environmental Protection Fund explained, there is really no need for such cars to end up in nature or rot in the yard for years. Everything can be solved by a single phone call to an authorized collector who will dispose of the waste vehicle in a prescribed and environmentally safe way.<\/p>\n<p>However, despite this, part of such cars still ends up in nature due to the negligence of individuals. As Vuku\u0161i\u0107 explains, there are examples when they pulled car wrecks out of the sea and lakes and as part of their previous actions in cooperation with speleological societies, they also pulled them out of caves. Once they were helped by members of the <strong>Ministry of Defense<\/strong> and pulled the wreckage out of deep abysses by helicopter.<\/p>\n<p>That is why, as the head of the <strong>Environmental Protection Department<\/strong>, <strong>Aleksandra \u010cili\u0107<\/strong>, explained to us, the Fund has designed an additional program that co-finances the disposal of car wrecks found in national parks and nature parks and islands.<\/p>\n<p>Since the owner of such cars is mostly unknown, these cars are not in the waste vehicle management system, but due to their harmfulness to the environment, they need to be adequately disposed of.<\/p>\n<p>That is why, through this Fund program, over two hundred wrecks located on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/island-cres\/\">Cres<\/a>, Drvenik Veliki, Hvar, Korcula, Premuda, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/island-rab\/\">Rab<\/a>, Vis and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ferrycroatia.com\/en\/island-lastovo\/\">Lastovo<\/a>, as well as the nature parks Velebit, Zumberak and Vrana Lake, will be additionally disposed of by the summer, says \u010cili\u0107.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.otoci.eu\/korcula-uklonjeno-preko-60-otpadnih-vozila\/\">Otoci.eu<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fund for Environmental Protection and Energy Efficiency organized an action to remove about sixty old, waste vehicles that were located on the island of Korcula.
