RE: Impact of single-use plastics associated with tourism
Hello @emiliomoron, I believe that this overproduction of single-use plastic waste not only occurs in the tourism sector, it also occurs in large cities where disposable containers mark the trend in the food sector.
Knowing the dimension of the problem, great solutions must also emerge, one of them would be the massive use of this waste but for example, in a country like Venezuela, recycling costs could be higher than the production costs themselves, and this it would be a great obstacle to face.
Great post.
Hi friend @tocho2, you are right, part of the problem is that this type of product is cheaper to make than to recycle, that hinders the development of appropriate strategies because the economic factor will always be decisive.
