What´s next on the horizon for Elsewhere along the Costalegre, thanks to the collaboration of DECA, AC, the work of Ofelia Rosas, and the financial support of Mercedes Gargollo and Ari Nieto, the Recycle Costalegre program has recycled approximately 20,000 kilos (22 tons). That´s a total of 30,000 kilos (33 tons) of plastic bottles recycled which would have otherwise ended up in municipal trash dumps, and in the Costalegre air we all breathe.

What´s next on the horizon for Recycle Costalegre? We plan to build an official recycling center with a press the plastic bottles, find buyers for paper and glass (aluminum recycling is already alive and well in Mexico) and provide a composting bin for organic refuse.
