Goals for Zero Waste in Todos Santos

​

1.- Zero Waste is to decrease the amount of waste going to the local dump (the more people involved, less waste reaching the landfill).

​

2.- To promote a new culture regarding the Integral Waste Managment (Organic and Inorganic separation at source).

​

3.- To create awareness of Consumption by promoting the vision of the three R's: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. (Do not confuse comfort level with consumption level).

​

4.- To spread Environmental Awareness for the collective welfare of our community and the rest of the world (not to the future, but now!)

​

5. At the Green Point (Collection Center) we carry out Urban Mining to recover precious metals and basic raw materials for primary industry without affecting the environment (reduction of environmental footprint).

​

6.- Change the traditional route of consumer goods (when they reach the end of their useful life) from a Linear Economy to a Circular Economy, closing the Energy / Matter Cycle.

​

7. Informing that Garbage Dumps/Landfills are highly toxic mines. More garbage at these places, more environmental risks.

​

8. To ensure that the Local Society participates actively in the culture of recycling for the benefit of the environment and of course the human being.
