The first step towards responsible management is to separate waste candles properly. When a candle burns out, it is removed from the grave and placed in the containers provided. Slovenia has a system of separate collection of waste tomb candles, flowers and other waste materials in cemeteries. Containers are clearly marked, so it is essential to put all waste in the right container. Flowers, pots and other decorative items do not belong in the containers for waste grave candles. Lighting grave candles is an important part of our tradition of remembering our dead. This symbolic gesture keeps us connected to our loved ones who are no longer with us. However, it is important to be aware of the environmental impact that the mass use of candles brings. We therefore urge moderation – fewer candles does not diminish the importance of our attention and respect for the deceased, but at the same time contributes to reducing the environmental burden. When we light a candle, let us also be responsible after burning it – always dispose of the waste candle in the container provided, thus helping to facilitate recycling and protect the environment. The Interzero label reminds us to be responsible with our waste candles. With a little effort, we can all contribute to proper waste management, from the moment we light a candle in memory of our loved ones to the moment we dispose of it and it becomes waste.
