The remarkable thing about the researcher is that she comments that most government decisions are made with assumptions and there are no statistics and real data on these wastes, therefore, they do not ensure that there is a benefit to the environment because there is no previous study for its application and scope.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Romina D\u00e1vila is a member of <a href=\"https:\/\/ecoce.mx\/\">ECOCE<\/a>, an environmental association whose objective is to recycle plastics, starting with consumer education and raising environmental awareness among children and adults.
