Making new things from recycled ones takes less money, less energy, and less of the Earth's resources. Practicing recycling is important and helpful to reducing your trash. Reducing, reusing, and recycling trash is critical to create less "stuff" to throw away into the landfill or created as litter on the roadside and on our beaches.

Our first step is to implement phase 1 which is plastics and cardboard only. We have a recycling contractor that will pay us for these recycled items. We can then use the money to expand the program to include more sites and types of materials.

Right now most of Mexico's recycling programs are community based. You can help us implement our own program by donating to Grupo Pro Sayulita. If we're successful, it will create awareness both locally around Banderas Bay and beyond to hopefully incent other communities to do the same.
