Environmental Friendly Neighbor Card is the Turkey's first and only award-winning recycling project, which forms the basis of the "Zero Waste" project carried out by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization.  Within this project scope wastes that do not decompose for a long time in the ecosystem are collected and recycled. Environmental Friendly Neighbor Card which performs with a win-win logic, makes a positive contribution to human and environmental health.
​​​​​​This  project started as a pilot study in two neighborhoods in April 2016. With the project, which started to be implemented in the entire district in a short time, approximately 16 million 113 thousand kilograms of qualified waste were collected from homes in 5 years. Muratpaşa residents earned 5 million 190 thousand liras with the qualified waste consisting of glass, paper, plastic and metal they did not throw away.
