All that recycling stuff sound pretty good, but unfortunately in Mexico there isn't a good culture of recycling. There are very few companies that recycle and is even more rare to see people who worry about it. How many times I have seen people throwing garbage out of the window of the car?
Mexicans don't seem to realize realize that our garbage affects the planet, we must care for tomorrow, that plants and animals will die because of our egoism, and we still do not realize, or perhaps do not want to face reality and we close our eyes in front of the problem .
Only in México City about 12 thousands tons of garbage are produced dialy, of which the overwhelming majority is buried in the ground, legaly or illegaly.
If you want, see this video about garbage in México City and the people that live from it, the "pepenadores". It lasts about five minutes but it it's a very good. (Sorry It's in spanish)
