Paper
The paper is composed of organic matter, or what is, elements that are or have been alive. For this reason we must learn to appreciate the important role as a result of a manufacturing process that has resulted in the death of a living being: the tree s and estimated that Mexico produces 22 million tons of paper year and that about 70% comes from recycled paper.
disposable bottles
In Mexico produces 738.000 tons per year of PET containers (soda, water, juices, etc.), Of these only 5% is recycled. PET containers occupy weight by 2-5% and 7-10% of volume in landfills (600 tons per day ONLY IN THE CITY).
Alternatives
Paper
simplest action for conservation: using both sides of paper saves 50 of every 100 trees used in papermaking. For every ton of paper recycled, 17 mature trees are saved from destruction and saves 20,000 liters of water and 4000 kWh of electricity.
Plastic Bottles
Always prefer returnable glass bottles.
