Meet the Changemakers: Green Mount Recycling Is Cleaning Lebanon, One Village at a Time  

Lebanon’s waste crisis has long felt impossible to solve - but Green Mount Recycling is proving otherwise. What began with one man collecting recyclables in his car has grown into a community-driven movement serving more than 15 municipalities and diverting over 1,000 tons of waste every year. Through simple systems, local engagement, and relentless dedication, the team is rebuilding trust in recycling and transforming villages once overwhelmed by garbage into some of Lebanon’s cleanest communities. This is the story of how real change begins: not with politics, but with people.
