From November 18 to November 24, the Tallinn Circular Economy Center is organizing another campaign, allowing city residents to dispose of bulky waste at city waste stations free of charge.

The Ministry of Climate, with support from the European Union, is allocating nearly €20 million to Tallinn to build a new tram line to Pelguranna. Combined with the city's contribution, the total investment exceeds €28 million.

Construction of the Lasnamäe Circular Economy Center is set to begin soon, following a construction agreement signed by Tallinn Property Department, Tallinn Circular Economy Center, and Fund Ehitus OÜ. This will be Tallinn's second purpose-built circular economy center, aimed at helping residents manage waste closer to home and in a more environmentally conscious way.

On December 11–12, a delegation from the Vinnytsya (Ukraine) City Administration visited Tallinn to learn about the city’s experiences in sustainability management and circular economy development. The study visit was part of a 2024 collaboration project in which Tallinn advised four municipalities on sustainability management.

If you wish to dispose of unnecessary items at home before the end of the year, you are welcome to visit Tallinn Circular Economy Center’s waste stations and the Lilleküla Circular Economy Center before the Christmas holidays.

The City of Tallinn is developing a modern urban space on Mustjõe and Värvi streets, including new safe pedestrian and cycling paths, traffic-calming measures, greenery, and a recreational area.

Today, the cornerstone will be laid for the Lasnamäe Circular Economy Center, which will provide residents with convenient opportunities to dispose of waste, repair items, and reuse them. The center supports the city's commitment to more efficient waste management and the broader goal of reducing waste and promoting the sustainable use of resources. The center is scheduled to open in 2026.

Tallinn Education Department and international programming school kood/Jõhvi are launching a partnership to offer three Estonian-language programming courses to ten Tallinn high schools starting from the next academic year. The first course – an introduction to programming – was presented on Wednesday, which students at Tallinna Tehnikagümnaasium have already started taking at their own pace since last week.

Starting Tuesday, 1 April, the Tallinn Circular Economy Center’s waste stations will switch to their spring-summer schedule, which means extended opening hours. The new schedule will remain in effect until 31 October 2025.

This year, the City of Tallinn will support the creation or development of 39 community gardens, 95 educational gardens, and 10 urban gardening projects, with a total budget of €343,880. These gardens and related projects help residents grow edible plants, learn to take care of the environment, and make the city greener and more biodiverse.
